[Bug 1807047] Re: sync hd-media FLOPPY_SIZE with debian

[Carl Karsten]

I should have tested, the iso doesn't fit in the resulting free space.

set -ex

wget -N http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/disco/main/installer-amd64/current/images/hd-media/boot.img.gz
wget -N http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/19.04/release/ubuntu-19.04-server-amd64.iso

gunzip --keep --force boot.img.gz

mkdir -p mnt
sudo mount boot.img mnt

df mnt
ls -l ubuntu-19.04-server-amd64.iso

sudo cp ubuntu-19.04-server-amd64.iso mnt/


++ df mnt
