The LI problem is a corrupted MBR...

Get a DOS/Win95 bootdisk with fdisk on it, & run "fdisk /mbr"

reboot the machine to linux using a linux boot disk, then run
(/usr(?))/sbin/lilo (can't remember the exact path)

That should fix your booting problem..  Can't help you with the floppy
problem, tho (sorry)
