Since 3.1-RELEASE has gone to 2 floppies, it somehow hit my mind today that it ought to be possible to hack the installation program to use smbclient to fetch installation tarballs from a shared CDROM on a nearby Microsoft machine (my love for Microsoft is low, but for many users there often is one nearby :-/ ). I have done no research yet on how this might be achieved. I just wanted to mention it here first to see if it was a fruitful line of inquiry or not.
