I forget these numbers) PCMCIA scsi card. It did not see the CDROM drive connected to it. Is there a way to (quietly) view the install flops boot messages? For running systems there is the scroll-lock thing. But when I try that with the bootflop kernel I only get the last messages or a blank screen.
