The problem is that I can't even boot the original box anymore because the 
driver that's installed has a problem that's fixed in DPT-1.2.1, and for
some strange reason, the original boot floppy won't work.

So I can build a working 1.2.1 kernel, and I can get it on the disk, but
fixit won't work so I can copy the kernel off the floppy to the drive.
Or ftp it, or any other way that I can think of.
