Hi, has anybody had experience building new boot floppies
for BSD201? I've got a BSD201 system connected to a
network via Token-Ring but there's only Ethernet support
on the supplied boot floppies (eg for remote-cdrom install).
Is there an easy way to recreate the boot floppies with my
currently Token-Ring - supporting kernel? I could just copy
the kernel across but somehow I don't think this would be
enough to get all the drivers etc in place on the floppies.
If there's anybody who's done this, or knows where there
is some good reading info about it, then I'd be very grateful
to hear from you (by email if poss). TIA,
