After a couple of days of sweat, headaches and the occasional fit of
rage, mostly thanks to this great support group I made it.
Recap:
Dowload the 2.1.4 diskettes.
Download tomsrtbt versio 1.7.102 (DOS ZIP) and extract the kernel

and how can I "graft" the kernel on the working boot floppies on
Debian's rescue.
This is my last chance before sadly departing from Debian of which I
