Dear readers,
My PC hangs as soon as I boot from the rescue-floppy, created with
rawrite2
As soon as I hit the -key for booting it shows the message
'booting...', followed by 'boot failed change disk and press a key to
continue'
adding parameters (linux mca aic7xxx mono etc) makes no difference.
It is quite likely your disk really is bad. Will it format in DOS?
Bad disks actually seem to be more common than you might think. Could
also be a disk drive problem.

it.

I'm experiencing problems installing Debian1.3 from scratch.
I followed the Debian1.3 installation guide and opted to
install with floppy disks.
Everything went swiftly untill I reached the point :
Make a Boot floppy
After introducing an empty, formatted, write-enabled floppy
