When i wanted to reboot, i found out my hard disk was empty(ipartitioned it), and i tried to reboot with my boot disk. Linux stoppedbooting with an 'unable to open an initial console' message. Then icould only try to reinstall with floppies. When i started the wholeinstallation once again everything seemed allright, till i came at'install the OS kernel and modules' where you have to insert the rescuedisk (it was already inserted). i got 'this is not the rescuefloppy...'message. tried it again and again, nothing helped.
