There is no install discs with support for the libretto floppydrive that I know of, I solved the problem by using dos fdisk and split my disk in desired partions, and using the swap partion for temporary storage of the debian base system, and once I had everything up and running reformated that partion as a linux swap.
One might make install discs if you patched a pcmcia based floppy install disc with the patch for using the pcmcia floppy drive for librettos. But I haven't tested that so I don't know if it would work.. good luck.. /Johan
