Glenn,
Actually, Erik has a "basic" floppy image built. He sent it out
(to the list?) a while ago. It worked pretty well...the only thing was
that the kernel came right off of his laptop, and therefore was not
optimized for anything but. I immediately place my 2.4.3 kernel in its
place and took off flying. I think that if we (you the developers and
us the users) want to display a "here's what it does and can do"
example, that'd be great. There are a MILLION "roll your own" HOWTOs,
but none of them pertain to BB. At one point someone in the list (I
apologize for not remembering who) sent me a fairly good one, describing
how to create a loop mount of an image file, etc. I think we really
need a good combination of the two. That's my US$.02, though.
