I'm not sure if this is a BSD/OS question, or a general unix question
so I'll cross-post.

I checked and this was what was in the /usr/bootstraps directory:

ahaboot
bootaha
bootany.sys
booteaha
bootfd
bootwd
eahaboot
fd5boot
fdboot
genboot
wdboot

should I copy one of these files to floppyboot or am I missing a file
that should already be there?

Thanks,
Boo
