The Last couple of nights, the Native Build has failed. This is due to some updates by Nic, as he is adding Better CPU (APIC/SMP etc...) support to the OS.

Do you know, the page defaulted to the bottom of Bloodline's post, and yet I didnt even have to read it before I knew who had posted.

Scary isn't it !?

I still question the need for a floppy (which is why native build is broke, it's too large for the floppy) builds.  Emergency boot floppy for native, sure, but a floppy distro? How many machines are out there that can't boot off of their CD/DVD device?  It maybe time to put it to bed once and for all, or atleast only update it once in a blue moon.  IMO.

No, we need a floppy distro.

1. It is a proof of Concept.
2. It takes only a few min's to download (unlike the CD version, esp. on 56K connections).
