Hi,

A suggestion: how many people are running PCI systems with only ISA
controllers?

How about two versions of boot floppy. #1 supports only ISA/EISA/VLB
controllers and #2 supports PCI onward. CDROM can support both using a
2.88M image. Probably  have to include the full mix of network interfaces
and a representative selection of the proprietary CD drivers on both
floppies. I don't have a good feel for whether this would free up enough
space.
