You might have seen that my development version is now single floppy. I have
achieved this by booting 0.0.82 kernel but installing 0.1.0 kernel to the
hard drive. It all works fine and its a bit of a head slap on my part that I
didn't think of it before. I already had 2 kernels on what was disk 2. The
root/boot floppy kernel and the final installed kernel. I have replaced the
0.1.0 root/boot floppy kernel and all is fine.

I have also stopped the install requesting a login. However I am not too
keen on the way I have done it and suspect that I might need some sort of a
change somewhere along the line to properly implement this feature. I have
"tweaked" getty to allow me in. The source code to the install disk getty is
in the dev download area too. I would appreciate some feedback on what will,
ultimately, be the best way to achieve this.

Have fun.

Thanks
