No, I was suggesting we could do a substitute
initfs.gz for the DOS version.  That would
enable a scsi-user to boot the DOS version 
by substituting initfs.gz (in /baslin) and
editing boot.bat to point at bzimage.big 
instead of zimage.

The problem is I have no scsi hardware, so
I can't be sure the modified initfs.gz will
work.  I certainly wouldn't want to confuse 
a newbie by giving him something that doesn't 
actually work.

Cheers,
Steven
