I put the new boot disk and a few sample packages in:

ftp://ftp.trinux.org/pub/trinux/images/0.50a/

You should be able to use binaries/libraries from RH5.2 to build packages
and make modifications to the initrd.

Right now most of the work is done in the pre.rc (initializing network
stuff) and post.rc (loading packages from an http server).

One big problem is that name resolution doesn't work at the moment.  I'm
probably doing something stupid...

Have at it if you're brave.
