gap between 2.0R and 2.1." No wonder the translators were confused!
I'm trying to say that we _wanted_ a gap between 2.0.5 and 2.1? That
such gaps are much needed? Wurgh! Not what I was trying to say at
all! It should have (and now does) read: "2.0.5 fills a critical
gap between 2.0R and 2.1." Critical gap, not much needed. :-)

The cpio floppy is dead. All hail the root floppy.
...
Basically, this is just a simple name change. People were historically
confused by the "cpio floppy", having no clear idea as to what it was
(even if they knew what "cpio" stood for) given that the name gives
one absolutely no indication as to what it's FOR. It's about as content
free as calling it a "data floppy". Root floppy isn't much better, but
it's got some historical weight (Linux divides their set into boot and
root floppies) and is reasonably descriptive for a floppy that comprises
the beginnings of a stand-alone root filesystem.

2. Clean up the menus a fair bit - add a FreeBSD configuration menu.
3. Eliminate the last of the "chaining" - the installation now does
the most obvious thing in the most obvious cases and doesn't present
you with more menus than you were expecting. This makes it necessary to be
a little more explicit in places, but it's still less confusing.
4. Add a few more safety nets for the user. Change a few hard-and-fast
limits to warnings (it now runs as non-root, Bruce).
5. Add descriptions for all the supported ethernet cards.
