I installed with boot floppies (boot/kern1/kern2.flp)
and via FTP. Do I have to download one of the
iso-images to get /stand back, they way you suggest?

Well, if "/rescue" is not a proper name for that,
then how proper is "/stand" ? Rescue is required
when in need of executables on an unmounted system.
Diskless boot is such a case!
I'm looking forward to this change; will you also
modify /etc/rc.d/initdiskless to not use /stand
anymore?
Rob.
