According to the fine manual, you should be able to boot from a > floppy and install 6.0 over FTP. This is giving me problems for some reason. I've put the floppy images on a Debian box in my office and dd'd onto a floppy. The boot.flp worked but the= n with the kern1.flp - which I dd'd onto the same floppy as boot.flp had gone on, get this after a while: zf_read: fill error readin failed elf32_loadimage: read failed Unable to load a kernel! ............................... maybe I'll follow the other path and just install my needed software the ol= d fashioned way. -- Web Installed Formmail - http://face2interface.com/formINSTal/ Webmaster's BBS - http://bbs.face2interface.com/
