First, I apologize for the play on words, but to make a driver floppy you soak it in water for 24 hours or more, that should do it. To make a floppy driver: If I remember correctly, at least with previous installations of Debian, there are a number of floppy images to download which include most of the NIC drivers out there. I guess the first question is, did you make these image floppies correctly? Is the disk medium not corrupted? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
