How is root.vd created?
I am unable to use the floppy for installation since the June 17th update. The
problem appears to be the use of bootes as the login in nvram rather than
glenda, as /usr/glenda is the only directory in /usr. The boot complains of
being unable to write in /tmp and cannot find /usr/bootes/lib/profile. I
suppose the fix might be as simple as creating a new nvram file with glenda as
the login, but I would also like to make changes to the installation.
