Nothing lasts forever. There's not enough space in 1.44MB, so they decided to help themselves and make the boot image 6MB. Funny, and not. > There is a 4MB boot.iso image that can be placed on a CD(RW) to boot and > then install from network or harddrive images.

It works pretty well for minimal installs, but if you're doing something graphical, get ready to fix X.
