So, I copied the misc/src directory into /mit/linux/devel/redhat/6.2
in order to play with it. I made a few modifications, fixed a glaring
bug in anaconda/loader/net.c that caused it to not work, and I've
built two working bootdisks, bootnet and bootpcmcia. I've even tested
them and yes, the disks work and DO get to the second-stage bootloader.
You can the images in /mit/linux/devel/redhat/6.2/trees/images/. You
can recreate the disks by running "make". You DO need to be root in
order to build the disk images.
Enjoy!
