You can make a small dos partition, and copy the following files in a dir on that partition: everything from boot/ dir on your cdrom + base1_3.tgz and drv1440.bin from stable/disks-i386 directory on your cdrom. You can also rawrite the floppy images on floppy disks using rawrite utility (int tools/ dir). You will need to rawrite the following files on the floppies: resc1440.bin, drv1440.bin and base*bin, and then boot with the rescue disk in your floppy drive. -- Proudly running Debian Linux!
