Subject"Johnny's first kernel hack"
Date

Hi linux-kernel. Congratulations to all of you. The Linux sourcecode, in
addition to being Linux, is just a pleasure to look at.

I made a 2.88 meg broot floppy for a PS2 2.88 meg floppy drive
( with the MCA patch of course). One snag along the way was the
rd_size = 4096; in drivers/block/rd.c . I cavalierly changed this
to 8192, and I don't think anything broke.

This suggests that the 4096 is kinda arbitrary, and perhaps a bit small
for 1998. I would suggest also adding the word "maximum" or something to
the related printk.
