Hi,
I recently decided to upgrade to 2.1.5. For various reasons I need to
do a floppy install. With previous versions this has been no big
drama.
For version 2.1.5 the required floppy layouts is very strange. For
example:
bin.inf must be placed on the first bin distribution disk
info.inf must be placed on the last bin distribution disk
manpages.inf must be placed on the info distribution disk.
I don't want to mix distributions, so I have been extracting each
manually. I would prefer to be able to do it in one hit.
Has anyone managed to do a floppy install and what disk layouts did
they use? I seem to remember some discussion on this matter previously,
but I can't seem to find the relevant mail messages in the archive.
Regards Richard ...
