I am trying to install Debian Linux on a Compaq laptop with 4 MB of ram using floppies. The lowmem disk works just fine to partition my hard disk. Then the rescue disk boots up okay too. However, when I get to the "load Linux kernel" stage, it doesn't recognize my rescue disk. I have made 3 different rescue disk images on 3 different floppies, but it keeps saying "wrong disk, insert the rescue disk".
Also, I have to initialize the swap partion with the lowmem disk in order to run with virtual memory. This seems to work out, but the instalation program keeps telling me to initialize and activate the swap partition. When I try to do this, it says the device is busy. Is this a problem?
