Subject: OT: MDLBL - Multi-Disk-Linux-Boot-Loader v0.1

Hi,

Just FYI: I've create a template disk image + small shell script for
creating a multi-disk linux boot floppies for kernels and/or initrd's
with a size > 1.44 MB. It's based on FreeDOS Beta 8, the XMSdsk ramdisk
and Loadlin:

I primary wrote it for ROCK Linux <http://www.rocklinux.org> but it might be
usefull for everyone who wants to boot larger (2.5) kernels from floppies.

yours,
- clifford
