You can still use the 0.95a root disk, but be sure the replace the tar
and compress from that image as soon as possible. Alternatively, use
the mcc-interim 0.95c+ release, and then just update your kernel with
0.96b.
I am waiting for the release of GCC 2.2.2 before I can release the new
root disk - the latest version of GCC I have cannot compile some
things due to bugs, and I would rather wait for 2.2.2 before
downloading GCC all over again. (Plus, with banjo down, I can't get
the latest GCC.)
I had said last Friday or this Monday, but now next Friday looks more
realistic - sorry. (On the bright side, this has given me more time
to work on documentation and improving some of the utilities.)
