[slackware-alphadevel] On the subject of boot/root-disks

Some days ago Chris mentioned that he had problems fitting the rootdisk
on a single 1.44M floppy.

I took a quick look at SuSE's alpha distribution disks, and they all seem
to be able to fit on 1.44M. Should there be any problems taking those
disks apart to see how they did it? I can't think of any!

SuSE : ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/axp/6.4/disks/

I'll look into this tonight unless some other solution has been found (I
don't think multiple-floppy rootdisks are very attractive).
