Subject:   floppy boot prob on Thinkpad 750C with 4.3 stable

trying to load 4.3 stable on a couple of TP750Cs (as test machines)  36Mb 
ram,  500Mb hdd,  2.88Mb floppy

download and create kern.flp and mfsroot.flp,  when I boot the TP with kern 
I get  the following error

Disk error 0x4 (lha=0x30)
Disk error 0x4 (lha=0x30)
No /boot/loader

 >>FreeBSD/i386 BOOT
default: 0:fd(0,a)/kernel
boot:
Disk error 0x4 (lha=0x30)
No /kernel

 >>FreeBSD/i386 BOOT
default: 0:fd(0,a)/kernel
boot:

I have tried making a 2.88M floppy from the boot.flp file and it also 
crashes with (oh the shame,
  I can't remember the exact error) an error I think like not ufs

Any one had success with this?

regards
Pete
