Floppy boot we have still had no luck with, as far as I know.  If you want,
I can sort through my sources and try to find the latest version of my
hacked-through ofwboot which allows floppy booting, but I more or less
abandoned it out of frustration at various interrupt-related bugs I simply
could not track down.

who really wants a mesh driver because he can't scrap his internal drive
right now

or - is the mesh the internal or external SCSI controller on the 7300's?  I
know one of them is a 53c94; if that's the external, I finally acquired the
hardware to try booting!
