I've ripped apart rh-net-install.tex, and checked in a partly broken
copy. Not only should I go over it again for things I know how to fix,
and actually fix them, but the following questions need to be answered,
and the answers documented.
* The (old) doc suggests that you look at things in
/mit/linux/docs/install which all seems ancient. We should drop
something newer in there, and try not to break people looking for 5.2
docs, in the process.
* How much should we tell them about partitioning? Are they given
a sane default? Should they have a separate afs cache?
* What's the exact syntax of the "make me an install floppy" script?
It should have some option to make pcmcia.img, and should print a
usage message, and otherwise be clever.
(I know what the script currently does, I don't think it's complete.)
I have no lock on this document. The source is peppered with fixme's,
as well as the above points.
