Hi there,

I'm running 3.0-Current, and am trying to put together a boot
floppy in /usr/src/release/floppies.  I've already built my own release;
all I need to know in the end is how to create a boot floppy for 3.0
that'll let me take a device driver I compiled into a kernel
without problems numerous times so I can do network installs.

My boot floppy compile, as far as I can tell, gets pretty far,
and then chokes on

cp /usr/src/release/floppies/boot/floppy/../../../../sys/compile/
BOOTMFS/kernel tree
../../bin/write_mfs_in_kernel/write_mfs_in_kernel tree/kernel ../mfs/fs-
image
MFS filesystem signature not found in tree/kernel

If I understand everything correctly, then the mfs stuff is required
to let me create a virtual memory filesystem, which I then
use for my install...can someone give me a tip as to what I may be
doing wrong?  

Thanks very much,

-John
