Other Help Topics :: Downloading and Installing DSL using ONLY a floppy
what size are the files? When you create it in split archives you can set the size. And how much space is on your floppies?Thank you for the comments. As I'm really new to Linux a lot of what you said, doesn't make sense (yet).
I'm going to go away and look as much up as I can and I'll yet you know how I get on. First "boot floppy"
Thank you!

My floppies are normal 1.44 MB floppies, however they only are 1.38 in reality (after formatting them). Well, when I put them in the WinRaR archive, I got this drop down menu, one of which was 3.5 inch floppy preset size. Now that I go back in and look, I found out that I am actually able to type in a specific size if I want to!!!!
Thanks for all the help, showing me the light of this WinRAR program I already have the boot floppy made, so I just need to copy over these rar files, then unRAR them, and run the boot floppy.
Is there anything I need to know about unRAR? I will need to transfer that program over as well? Will I need to place it anywhere specific so that I can unRAR the other rar files? What else should I know after I get the files over to the laptop??Sorry..i missed this last time
