Hi all,
I just installed the new disks on 4 SS and everything looks good. I installed
on SS2, SS5/110
SS10/40 single CPU and SS20/50 single CPU.
After installation I started installing single pkgs using dpkg to buil a
customized system.
I just have two questions:
1) After installing the disks

"WARNING floppy change called early"

the 2.2.14 a.out kernel from the new testing run of install disks, and
after a fresh install with the old 2.2.1-based Slink disks I can access
the FDD. I slipped a floppy in and could cat it without any trouble.
