   How about using the two 4.6 install floppies.  Or burn the 2.88 MB
   image on a CD and boot from that if floppies are a problem.

...sounds like a major pain and very risky.  Makes more sense to run the
appropriate sysinstall binary (if I can get it) on my already running
system with my already configured network.  If my only option is to
start over from dead zero I'd rather switch my router to OpenBSD.
