debs,

i'm thinking of a new laptop from http://www.qlilinux.com.  the new gen2:

        p4
        2.0 ghz
        usb
        firewire
        combo dvd/cd-rw
        (yada, yada, yada)

my only resevation is that it ships with a usb floppy.

in the event that i need to boot from a rescue floppy, i'd be sol 'cause
the usb floppy would only be recognized _after_ the box boots.

questions:

 1.  what good is a usb floppy in linux?

 2.  is it possible to make a boot cd (with the "mkboot" command)? 

 3.  how would such a box be bootable if lilo failed on the mbr?  

thx.

b.
