Booting from floppies needs alot of custimzations and module swapping. Its easier to create a boot cdrom with a modified command line (or info file) or even use the original CDs for that.

Is it possible to boot from the original CD, have the autoinst file on floppy and use an nfs repository? The autoinst file on floppy should refer to the nfs server ip addres and such things. I believe for this situation the autoinst file should be called info, as described in section 6.3, as that correct. -- Richard Bos Without a home the journey is endless
