 Dear Sirs,
 
 Could you explain what does -bf mean in the file-name like
 parted-bf_1.4.24-4.woody.1_i386.deb in the directory
 http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/parted; and maybe in GeForce4
 MX440 with kernel 2.4.18-bf24 on
 http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2003/debian-user-200311/msg00023.html;.

boot-floppies, the name of potato and woody's installer.

Description from parted-bf:

This package is similar to the big parted package, but has
less cosmetic features resulting in smaller binary. Intended
to be used on boot floppies.

bf means boot floppies, 2.4.18-bf2.4 is the 2.4 installation kernel.

best regards
Andreas Janssen
