Actually, I had issues with a new Dell using the 4.2 floppies.  It
hung to no avail when booting as it tried to bring up the PCIC
devices.

4.1.1 boot device floppies worked.  I installed 4.2 from those
floppies the first time, but it installed the 4.2 generic kernel,
which for some reason hung as well.  I'll send more details on this
later.
