Update Pythonless bootstrap instructions
* ``pre-network-sources`` is no more
* builder-hex0 stage1 is no longer precompiled, but instead needs to be generated from hex0 code (using POSIX tools or by hand)

* Run ``/bootstrap-seeds/POSIX/x86/kaem-optional-seed`` in the chroot.
(Eg, ``chroot rootfs /bootstrap-seeds/POSIX/x86/kaem-optional-seed``).

the disk ``src <size-of-file> <path-to-file>``, followed by the contents

* Optionally (if you don't do this, distfiles will be network downloaded):
* On the second image, create an MSDOS partition table and one ext3
partition.
