My personal opinion on this is that p2c in it's current state should be
removed from hamm. It's completely broken, as it depends on a non-existant
package that was removed from hamm during the freeze because, of all things,

You might want to look at the Linux Router Project:

which is building a Debian-ish single floppy router.
Also, it's worth noting that you can format 3.5'' floppies to contain up to
about 2MB, by using bizarre sectors/track settings. This is also mention

I am currently preparing the 2.0.7 release version. To the best of my

it, but there isn't anything between then and now.

This is a packaging of the scripts used for our list archives
webpages, which were written by Guy and are GPL. Example of a new
site from this technology:
http://lists.openprojects.net/Lists-Archives/
new debian package, version 2.0.
size 27116 bytes: control archive= 1684 bytes.
Sorry to bother all of you with my strange problems, I just
rebooted the machine and it works again. I think it was something
with bash, with other shells (tcsh and csh) it worked ok but within
bash not at all. Anyway, a reboot solved it.
