I know there are a whole lot of easily-fixed bugs on that list, but barely any of them have any response from the boot-floppies team at all.

I've downloaded the patch. Your help screens look nice, and I'll probably use them for the next boot-floppies set. Thanks. About the "approved method", I guess it is through the bug tracking system, but I don't mind downloading a patch, and it means less "administrative work" for me (it's a pain to deal with boot-floppies bug list, as this package usually gets as much reports about bugs in syslinux, the kernel, modconf or even dselect as reports about real boot-floppies bugs). Also, we (the boot-floppies team) have received patches at the [EMAIL PROTECTED], and nobody has complained (yet). :-) -- Enrique Zanardi[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Edits to Startup Disk Help
I posted a patch to the boot-floppies package with changes to the help screen. Since I didn't get feedback on it I wonder if this is not the approved method of making changes to other people's packages. The edits, if you're interested, are on master master.debian.org/~elf/patches/boot-floppies_2.0.11_p1
