   1Quickstart on making the Busybox boot-floppy:
   2
   3  1) Download Busybox and uClibc from CVS or tarballs. Make sure they share a
   4     common parent directory. (i.e. busybox/ and uclibc/ are both right off of
   5         /tmp, or wherever.)
   6
   7  2) Build a Linux kernel. Make sure you include support for initrd.
   8
   9  3) Put a floppy in the drive. Make sure it is a floppy you don't care about
  10     because the contents will be overwritten.
  11
  12  4) As root, type ./mksyslinux.sh path/to/linux/kernel from this directory.
  13     Wait patiently while the magic happens.
  14
  15  5) Boot up on the floppy.
