There is a new a1 image on tsx-11.  It is called a1.test.
Because it is such a radical departure from existing SLS
I have opted for a test release of it first.

This will be the new install disk format.  Disk a2 will
become a DOS disk like the rest.

The new install disk uses LILO (thanks W.A.) and is based
loosely on the GCC bootdisk (thanks H.J.).  It has support
for installing from: Floppy, Hard Disk, NFS, Tape, and CDROM.
Just hold down ALT after you see LILO for instructions.

Please, if you decide to test this, mail me with your experience.
Don't burden C.O.L. any more than it is with the results.
