Thank you, Alvin :-D
Actually, as I was using a new floppy (already formated, and bug free --
so they say), I haven't done the low level format. More: I've tried with
more then one set of disks...
You were right: the root.img floppy had errors. It was just a question
of formatting the disks to guarantee they were bug free, and now The
installation is already running :-D
Thanks again,
Carlos
