Description Michael E Brown 2002-01-29 19:39:13 UTC 
Description of Problem:

It would be nice to have an image on the CD that has no size limitations and
contains all of the kernel drivers. (ie. all of the drivers in the -BOOT kernel)
Suggested name: /images/everything.img

This is helpful for PXE, Hard Drive, ISOLINUX, and other situations where you do
not have an initrd size limitation.
Comment 1 Matthew Miller 2002-02-10 16:25:06 UTC 
(and is useful for computers (usually laptops) with no built-in floppy or cdrom
drives.)
Comment 2 Jeremy Katz 2002-04-05 03:51:43 UTC 
/images/pxeboot/initrd-everything.img now exists to fulfill this purpose.
