It may be a feature, but it's an unexpected and confusing one.
OK. I'll put a README file in the Debian directory and in /usr/src/linux.
I expect some small degree of sophistication of anyone who uses the source
package and the boot-floppies package (which also builds itself).

Python's Tkinter module supporting Tk 4.0, we'll have to wait until
the tk/tcl packages get up to pace. Provided Tk doesn't need to be
built in a full X11 source tree, I might try to put together
experimental ELF tk and tcl packages, I'm tight on disk space :(.

OK, but why even let the installation get to the preinst script? How
about we add a new dependency field in the control files which tells
dpkg that the specified packages/versions must already be completely
installed (unpacked *and* configured)
I will eventually fix the root disk to use syslinux when it creates the
boot floppies. In the meantime, here's a work-around:
Look at the files in /usr/lib/syslinux (install the syslinux package
if you don't have them) and use them to create a boot floppy, or use LILO
(package lilo, documentation
Package: base (???)
It should be possible to specify options in /etc/modules.
Example for my Mitsumi-Drive:
mcdx mcdx=0x300,11
which sould call modprobe with the command-line
modprobe mcdx mcdx=0x300,11.
