Subject:  [VOICENWS] AiR-BOOT v0.28 pre-release Linux tester needed

From: kiewitzatnetlabs.org 

Well, I was away for some weeks. I just included Linux Kernel FAT-16
support into the latest pre-release version of AiR-BOOT.

It's working as far as I can tell on my computer(s), but I don't have
Linux actually installed. I just have some kernels to mess around. So if
someone has Linux and is willing to try out this pre-release, PLEASE
contact me.

Previously raw kernel partitions were supported. Now this changed.
AiR-BOOT is able to load kernels from a FAT-16 partition and they will get
included on-the-fly into Bootmenu. My FAT-16 support is able to handle up
to 4 GB (!) FAT-16 partitions (64k clusters). I can't actually test that
feature because I don't have Windoze NT and I only got some 2 GB FAT
partitions.

As soon as that feature gets tested, I will finally release v0.28b.
Afterwards I will continue my work on Virtual Soundblaster driver (that
one got delayed as well).

cu, Kiewitz
