MSDOS allow me to put in 16MB, but no lower.
"Other" still has a 32MB minimum.

It seems to boot fine in 16MB.  I can't try any lower on VMware 4,
but that's fine with me.  I've very happy with 16MB!

It does.  I have the script fixed so it copies to blank floppy now.

I am confused about something else.  Along with etc.tar.bz2, there is a
new config file named var.tar.bz2.  Seems logical ...  except I cannot
find anyplace where it untars var.tar.bz2 in the linuxrc script.  Is it
untared somewhere else, or did you forget to untar it?
