Nothing is that stupid, noone would go there. We did that back in early
3.x
times to have a full installation (auto_install wasnt even beyond the
horizon
back then) including suppressed boot>, no dmesg (but a nice 'whirl'),
some
install-progress and kind of dyndns.

All on a single 80x24 screen without scrolling.

Needed some serious diffs including meddling in some .S and init(8)..

diff is on a backup tape far far away :-)
