The hardware guide is not on the floppy:
"If the kern.flp floppy does not boot at all or the boot hangs at some
stage, read the Q&A section of the Hardware Guide on the floppy for
possible causes."
Also, add a hyperlink to the page, where it mentions disabling bios
virus protection, which can cause problems.
