Ok, I have a PC that is too old to boot from cdrom, so I need to make some boot floppies. However, the Admin Guide handbook references things that just are not even close to the cdrom structure and files. And the suse support db doesn't have squat on this either.
Can I just copy the initrd from the CD1/boot/loader dir to the floppy? Or, is there more to it?
Also, where are the alternative kernels? (especially, the smaller kernels with just bare minimum) I searched the cd's but didn't find anything, but I probably searched for the wrong things.
And, can I use the CD2/boot/image in place of the CD1/boot/bootdisk?
Look in disk1/boot/README it explains how to make the floppies. There isn't a "minimum kernel" you would have to compile it yourself. --- use Perl; #powerful programmable prestidigitation
