Ok. But you didn't fully understand my point: The feature you are
describing works for ramdisk images that fit onto a single floppy, right?
But what I described should be able to support multiple floppies for the
compressed root filesystemimage which is to be loaded to the ramdisk.
(Wasn't that what you asked for initially?)
