The other day I had to make 15 boot floppies before I got a set to work.  And 
that was with new out of the box floppies.  I ended up using the drive that I 
was making the floppies with to boot.  (the old hardware swap)

There's nothing special that you have to do for an install on a pentium pro 
or scsi system.
