Subject: RE: Debian Boot Floppies
I have an old machine that for some reason or another refuses to boot off of
CD. I have made boot floppies for Centos and have been able to progress
with that, but the system is a Pentium 200 (Centos requires a faster box and
will not install). I know Debian supports older hardware, therefore I
wanted to do the install with Debian.

Never had an issue. Tho I have not used floppies in ages. I make a cdr
with the bootstrap iso and go from there.
