Other Help Topics :: booting 0.8.2 from floppy

Yee Hah!

Thanks for the help, all.

I followed the directions on writing the boot image to the floppy
and it came up!

Of course, being an old laptop, the original image was a mess, but...

I searched the forums and found the references to entering
'fb800x600'.  Used that at boot and it's thing of beauty.

Now to squeeze a couple hundred MBytes of hard drive out of this
old beastie and do a hard drive install (plus see if it'll run my
orinoco gold wireless card)
