Uh...  sysboot is a *special* file...  If you really need
sysboot it has to reside in the first 11 blocks of the logical
volume.  If you want sysboot on your floppy you need to invol 
the floppy WITHOUT the -n (non-bootable) option.  However, if
you're not going to try and boot (to Phase II, etc) off the
floppy, you probably don't need sysboot and can USE the -n option
to get back those 11 blocks...
