Thanks Riley.

I have a few things to do before I get to disk formats. Thankyou for your,
as ever, very useful information.

Ideally, it would be an extension of the elkscmd package that was
implemented as a `make instimg` command that created the disk images in
a similar way to how the `make full3` creates a disk image of a 1.44M
3.5" ELKS boot floppy. If Neil wishes to do that, I have no problem with
the idea, and my recommended route would be to create an elkscmd/hdinst
directory in the existing tree and develop this in there, then go from
that.

Comments?

Best wishes from Riley.
