Wow it just timed out and completed booting the kernel.old well anyways my question is where can I get an bootable image for a floppy that either mounts everything appropriately or something like that. I also have the problem that I have a 3com 3c509 card that hangs the system unless I remove several of the preceeding devices that I don't have in my system, so I can't just use the generic kernel. This floppy would probably have it's own /etc but would mount the filesystems someplace where I can edit them and if nessesary actually compile etc. Thanks in advance I'm sure someone has this just laying around, or knows the switches to use at the kernel boot promt to start very little of the fluff that makes a real system
