Subject: rootdisk has poor management of kernel messages
Date: Wed, 6 Aug 1997 20:18:33 +0100
Package: rootdisk
Version: 28/05/1997

If the kernel prints any messages during the initial floppy-based
installation phase, they just splatter all over the screen.  Ideally,
some way should be found to have them directed to a particular
`window' on the screen, and/or filtered by the installation scripts.

Ian.
