Interest in a lower compression iso optimized for USB booting?

Occurs to me, however, that few people might have that use case--using boot FD to run USB live on machines that old, but...could be wrong.

I have an old Dell Optiplex (Pentium 350MHz) which requires the Plop Boot disk in order to boot from USB. I think this may be the case for a lot of ancient machines.

@John: I'll test the new ISO in a while. Had a network issue to deal with just now; had to run another cable, physical accessibility was awkward to say the least! Wish ALL ethernet cables had boots on, to save the retaining clips being snapped off when trying to pull cables through, rendering them practically useless!
