Warner, I am sorry to not said it clearly, It is I want to bootup and install the 4.0R on my Toshiba Libretto Laptop with the Boot Floppy Disk, so I want to buy this Toshiba Libretto floppy drive to do it, but some Linux web pages said this drive is a pcmcia interface not normal external floppy drive, it can't boot linux. Is it possible that a FreeBSD system bootup with pcmcia interface device (like Toshiba Lebretto Floppy Disk, Compact Flash, IBM Micro Drive..) ?
