Rich Payne discovered that when using the automagic server install
path, /boot wouldn't be big enough.  This update fixes that problem.

If you can't wait until the next ISO comes out and you intend to
install a server system using automatic partitioning, here's what to
do:

Grab the following disk image, dd it to a floppy and add `update' to
the aboot command line arguments when booting off the install CD.
When prompted if you have an update disk, insert the floppy and press
return.  Proceed with installation as usual.

Enjoy!
