For uPort SysV/AT 2.4 (286).

1.  What are the minor device numbers for floppy devices?  I need numbers
for 1.44Mb mini-floppy and 1.2Mb 5" floppy as the second floppy drives on
a generic AT clone.  I also need the minor dev number for 0s25 (that strange
bootable device) for a 1.44Mb mini floppy.

2.  How do I create a bootable floppy disk for SysV/AT v2.4?

I have the v2.4 distribution on 1.2Mb 5" floppies but I want to convert to
1.44 Mb mini floppies.

Thanks in advance.
