You shouldn't need the floppy. When you build your new kernel, just make sure
it has a different version than your booting kernel (use EXTRAVERSION if
necessary). Put an entry in lilo.conf for the new kernel, and run make zlilo.
You will have both kernels in /boot after this, and if the new one isn't any
good, you just boot up the old one.
