Ah, there we go. An nVidia POS. I'm cursed with nVidia hardware as
well. http://www.minion.de/
For rescue.bin, you should point right back at the floppy!!!
You are not supposed to untar base.tar.gz or drivers.tar.gz,
even if you put them on floppies!
There are two ways to create the floppy versions of these:
The Hard Way:
dd if=some512byteheader of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 count=1
dd if=base.tar.
I don't know what the problem is but if I were you I would try rsync with a
different server and see if you get the same results. If you do, your
download is somehow bad.

Hi,
Your hard disk is IDE? DO you know the name and make.

I wouldn't expect a seamless installation. Any comments should be sent

debian-testing for quite a while, so didn't even know that the
boot-floppies had been released)

Did you set your connection? Run pppconfig and set it up first. That can be the
problem.

Not having a non-us and a non-free isn't bad, you'll just miss a few
packages (like ssh, netscape and others).
Error code 1 can be lots of things: please post the output!

I believe that your HD is an IDE (or some sort).
IDE controllers are supported by the stock kernels, except the latest

Hi,
If you must install from floppies, I would use different ones.
When I need a floppy for something, I format it under windows
