The HP i2000 has a 120MB floppy (super-disk), but other than that it's all with CD/DVD. Our current release build creates a floppy install based on the fact that we have so far only seen super-disks and assumes there's at least 5MB available, but I won't feel any pain if that's going to be removed. Since I don't expect to find a legacy floppy controller on ia64 at all, we can can state that (legacy) floppy installs are not now and not ever going to be supported on ia64 -- euh, by me :-) -- Marcel Moolenaar USPA: A-39004 marcel@xcllnt.net
