Prepare.fs is 1080k while install.fs is 1440k - is there space to expand?

It also looks like the atari floppies still have mount_kernfs - IIRC
switching to dmesg and removing kernfs from the kernel was a net space
win on *I think* sparc when it was done.

Does the sysinst installer image work on atari?
