Code Issues Releases Wiki Activity

Remove optional step about setting a custom font, since it has now its now wiki article. Setting a custom font is an optional step, and does not belong to the initial setup of the board.

* `tos.img`, the ATARI ST operating system. You can use the latest [EmuTOS](https://sourceforge.net/projects/emutos/files/emutos/) or [a real TOS image](http://www.atariworld.org/tos-rom/). TOS 1.00, 1.02, 1.04, and 2.06 will all work in any language. Please note that copyright still applies to real TOS images.
* `disk_a.st`, [a default floppy disk image for drive A:](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wiki/mist-devel/mist-board/disk_a.st). Without a floppy disk enabled, booting may be very slow. TOS will automatically recognize this file and boot times will be much faster.
Optionally, you can also include:
* firmware below 200516: `system.fnt`, [the Atari font file](https://github.com/mist-devel/mist-binaries/blob/master/cores/mist/system.fnt), if you want to use it for initial boot messages. Otherwise, it will use the same font as the on-screen display.
* firmware since 200516: `system.fnt` is the common font file for on-screen display and MiST core initial boot messages. It must contain 8x8 fonts, 768 bytes (ASCII chars 32-127) or 1024 bytes (ASCII chars 0-127) length file. [Fonts_MiSTer](https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Fonts_MiSTer/blob/master/README.md) repo has a large collection of fonts.
Make sure to name the files exactly as listed above: `core.rbf`, `tos.img`, `disk_a.st`, and optionally `system.fnt`.
