This is the "boot sector removal" patch for i386 updated for Linux
2.5.63-bk7.  The only change against the 2.5.59 version is that the
FDOPTS Makefile variable, which lets one create a floppy image with
arbitrary kernel options, has been merged from the x86-64 version, and
the comments have been updated.

The patch removes the in-kernel boot sector, which these days rarely
work correctly (it only supports up to 1 MB kernels, and only work on
legacy floppies -- not on IDE or USB devices, nor on any kind of
emulated devices like El Torito), replaces it with a placeholder stub,
and sets up the Makefile targets to create floppies or floppy images
using SYSLINUX.  The FDOPTS Makefile variable can be used to set
kernel command line options (thanks to a suggestion by Andi Kleen.)

Note that the same change has already been applied to the x86-64
architecture.  The last hunk of the patch corrects a comment in that
architecture.
