Hai,
Well thanx for giving me the pleasure to learn..... I've got meself a working bootflop & All is recognized. Next challenge: Install Operating system Kernel and Modules!!!!!!!!!! I gently lay in the CD-rom.....Now it can't install the rescue flop ....... Place Debian Cd-rom; enter /instmnt; enter default: The default stable archive (I know of nothing else:-)) Unable to mount the rescue floppy. You may have inserted the wrong floppy Please try again???????????????????????? ..... When I put in the floppy that I remarkebly produced, making the system see the different scsi-adapters, it gives: Unable to mount the resue floppy, you may.............. Help? Anybody knows how I should go about this? Allmost there..........half actually.
