The TelemetryBox has given up using boot-floppies as tne
installation software. We needed a 2.4.X kernel and it seems that the
boot-floppies package will never be able to cope with that. Moreover
essential features like autodetection are problematic with a 2.2.X kernel.
We have now build a
Seems that my pcidetect script needs 2.4.X kernels because depmod cannot
extract PCI ids from the drivers.
Anyone know where to get a pcimap for 2.2.19? Preferably compatible with
2.4.X modules.pcimap format.
Or is there any way to build boot-floppies using 2.4.X kernels?

Then we would probably need arch specific default partitioning strings.
Do all arches support fdisk? Then we could simply have different schemes
depending on arch.

The boot-floppies package at http://openrock.net/tb/local/disks-i386 has all
sorts of RAID controller stuff. The archive also contains a 2.2.18 SMP
kernel for Debian.
