In a debian-mirror, e.g. http://ftp.sunet.se/pub/os/Linux/distributions/debian/dists/Debian2.2r5/main/disks-i386/2.2.26-2001-06-14/images-1.20/ Perhaps I should have suggested this earlier, but I think it is easier to install Debian 2.1 (slink) from floppies rather than 2.2 (potato), since installing slink requires fewer floppies, less RAM etc. > I have another question: > I had created 3 partition : > hda1: boot, 4 Mb > hda2: swap, 4 Mb > hda3: 81 Mb > > Confirme is what I have done is relatively suitable. > I can put hda1=40 Mb and hda2=8 Mb for my disk is too small I'd say 4 Mb for swap is too little. Can you make the larger disk hda, then do it, and use hdb (8Mb) for swap. If that is not possible, consider using a boot-floppy to load a kernel on hdb (In that case, /boot does not need a dedicated partition), and use hda (8Mb) for swap.
