- apparently people are still wanting to install from floppies.
The mind boggles.
If you can't boot from CD-ROM, use a USB stick. If you can't boot from
a USB stick, use PXE. If your NIC doesn't do PXE, you can get one that
does for $20. If that is not an option either, move the disk to another
machine, install, and move it back.
If you really want to install 7.2 from floppies, you will need 76 disks
just to get a bootable system. For 8.0, you will need 84.

I think the easiest answer would be:
install 6.x or something, and upgrade.
