You can download the image from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/7.0/kernel/promise/eide and mirrors. Dump the image on a floppy disk using RAWRITE (if you use DOS/Windows) or with the following command (insert a blank floppy disk): dd if=eide of=/dev/fd0 bs=9k If you were able to install SuSE Linux with this boot disk, make sure to replace the installed kernel image with the one on the floppy disk using the following commands (as root): mcopy a:linux /boot/vmlinuz lilo Enjoy!
