[Rule-list] ? on RH floppy boot

[Wade Hampton]

I saw posted and read where the initial goal is to just replace the boot

floppy and use a stock RH CD-ROM., but I have a question.

Doesn't RH mount a virtual root from the CD-ROM and locate
the install software there?  I believe there are several images,
all in cdrom1, RedHat/base/*stg1.img and stage2.img.

If this is the case, would this project have to either:

1)  make a separate installer, e.g., busybox+kernel+scripts,
     text only and use the RH disc for RPMs

2)  make a separate virtual image based on RH's but with additional
     options and capabilities.

Item 2 would require a custom CD-ROM ISO image.  However,
this is a good thing.  The CD-ROM could also contain the latest
RH updates.

My ramdom thoughts prior to enough coffee,
