  I changed one the driver and tried to build a new 9pcflop.  The mk
  'CONF=pcflop' 9pcflop went OK, but the size is much smaller than the one
  from install floppy.  Am I missing something somewhere?

The 9pcflop that gets built from the current
distribution is not the same as the 9pcflop
that we hand out, because the distribution is
a bit out of date.

You should still be able to 
	cd /sys/lib/pcdist/disk
	mk
to get a bootable install image, but it's not
the sort that will work on machines without floppy
drives (which is what we currently give out and
is much larger because the entire root file system is 
compiled into the kernel).

When we put out the next distribution, it will include
the new setup.
