I have *NOT* implemented support for the following, which I'm hoping
has fallen out of use by now:

-> When loading the ramdisk from a block device, stop and
ask the user for a second disk.


This is most certainly still being used, e.g. in Debian to allow

Are you splitting the ramdisk between multiple floppies, or do you have kernel + ramdisk floppies?
