I'm not familiar with the PCG-GT1 but if it has a USB floppy drive the
Woody boot disks just will not work out. I've read reports on using
custom floppy disks. Google away. See, for example,
http://lists.debian.org/debian-laptop/2002/debian-laptop-200205/msg00230.html
Basically, you need a bf24 boot disk that includes the correct USB
drivers. Unfortunately I've never actually tried this (I have a N505VE
with a Sony PCMCIA CD-ROM).
Cheers!
