briggs ed4b87656a Encourage readers who have "READ TIMEOUT@" errors on floppies to write 
the floppy images on the drive that will be reading them.
 2005-01-08 05:33:42 +00:00
briggs cdd0593dc3 Mention "READ TIMEOUT@" in conjunction with the floppy boot instructions 
and point the reader at the "Common problems" section.  This is a really
common problem and will only get more common as floppy drives get older.

mbw 55b93e3026 add prep.OPENFIRMWARE to list of merged sources 2003-09-02 05:48:35 +00:00
mbw e00fa819c1 Substantial overhaul which splits OF versions up for clarity. Much of 
what was in prep is now in prep.OPENFIRMWARE.

prep now calls prep.OPENFIRMWARE twice.  The first time, it generates
documentation specific to Open Firmware 3 systems.  The second pass, it
outputs OF 1.x and 2.x specific stuff.  This makes it easier to follow
directions for a particular class of machines.

Also, a few minor rewordings to clarify a little better.
