I usually make a set of boot floppies because my desktop system does not boot from the SCSI CD. But, there are always ways to get this accomplished. Glad you were able to repair the problem. A few months ago, I had a problem with a corrupt Reiser FS on my laptop coupled with a problem where neither the CD/DVD nor floppy were recognized by the BIOS. The corruption was caused by a bad memory module, and the DVD/floppy issue solved by reseating the cables in the detachable wedge. On 26 Aug 2002 at 23:12, Sean Rima wrote:
I never tried the CD, have to admit that I forgot about it, I used, in the end, a floppy distro and I fixed it :)
