I have uploaded 'tomsrtbt-1.1.3.26.tar.gz' to sunsite's Incoming for
placement in system/recovery and to ftp.clark.net/~toehser/rb/ where
it is now, and submitted the updated .lsm file to the LSM database.
It is a boot/root rescue/emergency floppy image with more stuff than fits.
Bzip2, 1722Mb formatting, and tighter compilation options helped jam it in.
It is useful for "learn unix on a floppy" as it runs from ramdisk, includes
the man-pages for everything, and generally acts in a predictable way.
It is not too hard to customize.
1.1.3.26 is mostly bugfixes from 1.1.3.17.
Features and .lsm file:
ELF kernel 2.0.33 with:
AHA152X AHA1542 AIC7XXX DMSDOS EATA EXT2 FAT FAT32 FD FUTURE_DOMAIN IDE IDECD
IDETAPE IN2000 ISO9660 JOLIET LOOP MATH_EMULATION MINIX MSDOS NCR53C8XX NE2000
NFS PROC QLOGIC_FAS RAM SD SEAGATE SERIAL SR ST TR VFAT
Stuff; modules, manpages, links, scripts, or binaries:
