Funnily Speaking of fixit media, is there still a fixit CD image ? My new laptop has (amongst it's other minor problems) a USB floppy, which works to boot/install from, but sysinstall doesn't see it as a floppy for use with the fixit floppy (it appears as da0). Now, I do have a bootable cdrom drive, so a bootable fixit CD with an image on it would be very useful to me - is there one (to purchase or an image), which sysinstall can use as the "live" image ? Can I just burn a CD with boot.flp as the boot image and the filesystem from my existing machine and expect it to work ?
