I made a linux boot disk yesterday and linux spat out the first four floppies. Linux is _very_ picky about floppies. Try some more disks. Sometimes old floppies are better than the new ones which are very much built to a price now-a-days.
That said, does anyone know why Linux is so picky about floppies? I know that dos will retry several times to read a flaky sector - does Linux do this too? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Lindsay Allen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Perth, Western Australia voice +61 8 9316 2486 32.0125S 115.8445E vk6lj Debian Unix =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
