What about FAT32 support? For the life of me, I can't find it in
menuconfig. I see Joliet CD extensions (a patch by the same author), and
the usual VFAT/FAT options. Do the combination of these enable FAT32 in
the vfat module or something?

On the Fat32 page, it says the patches were all included
in kernel 2.1.60. I see Fat32 as a MUST-HAVE feature for 2.2 since Win98
is going to be all Fat32. Without this patch, Win98 users won't be able to
ftp-install when they realize that Win98 is simply Win95 OSR2 with more
bugs...
