the third boot floppy.
I was wondering where I might find a 2.6.x boot floppy. I've looked
around on the net and there seem to be many 2.6 netinstall images but
no recent boot floppies...

Floris,
I have also found it advantageous to create a grub boot floppy. You
can then select among kernels or fiddle with the bootloader
configuration actually in the course of a boot.
If you do have a running system, then simply have root visit grub's

Might it be the initrd issue? You seem to be using a prebuilt kernel
