I made a boot floppy as described in the procedure. I booted it on my
machine, and the boot prompt does come up ok. After the 5 second delay the
boot process tries to continue, but I get an error that it can't find the
kernel. I tried using the -c option, but that didn't help either. I've got
an IBM Thinkpad 750 with 8M RAM. Any ideas would be appreciated as to how
to get started with at least booting. Thank you.
