>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.
