Don't send HTML email!  Many people can't read it and so your
questions won't get answered.

   fd0. Try again?'.  I have on the floppy, the files 'install.sh',
   'bin.inf', 'bin.aa', 'bin.ab', 'bin.ac', 'bin.ad', and 'bin.ae'. The
   troubleshooting guide and all the other documentation I could find
   didn't help me out at all. What's the problem here? How do I fix it?

Where are bin.af through to bin.fg? :-) Are you following the
directions for installing from floppy in the handbook?
