[slackware-sparcdevel] new netboot images, new ISO available

Couple of things:

(1) There are now four netboot images. Two for 32-bit SPARCs, two for
     64-bit machines. One each for color.gz and serial.gz. Pick the one
     appropriate to your system. NFS installs seem to go without a hitch
     now, so you can safely consider that an option now. The included
     tftpconfig utility will help you set up an existing Slackware machine
     to be a netboot server.

(2) I've made another ISO image available through the rsync server. It's
     a mini bootable ISO containing these directories:

        boot/
        images/
        kernels/
        slakware/a1/
        All the text files in the toplevel.

     It's 67MB in size, so maybe this will help a lot of people. It's
     ready to go, just download it and burn to a CD. It's just the A
     series, but you can do an install of that and see how it goes.

     The rsync image name is "slackware-sparc-iso-mini". Use the same
     username and password as you do for the other two trees.

Have at it!
