>Description:
- Chase the change(Revision 1.332)
The order of install floppies on 4.X is kern.flp -> mfsroot.flp -> kern.flp
5.X(and later) is boot.flp -> kern1.flp -> kern2.flp -> boot.flp
After Revision 1.332, as far as i know, we removed some 4.X info
but not update all related content.
This patch will chase the chage.
