How could I defrag sda2 (which I would like to do)? Hmm --- if defrag is still missing stuff, it's most likely to be the terminfo / ncurses code used to drive the full-screen display. Try compiling it statically and copying the relevant terminfo file to your root floppy set. Alternatively, the next version of defrag may have an option to disable the full-screen display at compile time and to automatically compile statically, for use on root floppies.
