Has anybody else had problems with the ISO image? 

One of the things I need to do 

Basically for each release I will provide 3 floppy images x 2 ( for the
2.2/2.4 kernels )

1. Standard - This primarily used for network loading. Contains a
half-dozen or so common NICs and room on the floppy for a few more if you
are not fortunate to have one in the kernel.

2. PCMCIA - This kernel has no support for any PCI/ISA NICs built-in and
there is enough room on the floppy for PCMCIA kernel-module packages.

3 IDE - This kernel has IDE, FAT, ext2, NTFS, iso9660, and CD-ROM support.
The linuxrc will search IDE devices (including the CD-ROM) looking for
packages. This disk will also be used by iso-image creation.


#1 & #2 are completed, but I need to make a few changes to the linuxrc.
