- Arg :-) No. inst-11.fs is a raw copy of a disk. The install floppy or
- install filesystem for NetBSD-Amiga. This file is copied to the swap
- partition to make it possible to install netbsd. It will not be used
- anymore, once you have installed NetBSD.

- Yes. "Extract" will take care about this.
