I STILL can't boot my system.  I've created the boot.flp for 2.1 AND 2.0.5
and neither will boot.. my system will just hangs with NO output whatsoever.
Even the three-finger salut doesnt work. 

I can boot DOS on the floppy drive
so the floppy drive isnt the problem.

Both the 2.1 and 2.0.5 boot disks I made boot another computer I tried them
on so the boot disks arent the problem.

After that I pulled ALL nonessential cards from my system right down to the
serial port card, with NO change. the system still hangs with NO output.

My system consists of:
CPU: 486DX2-66
RAM: 8
BIOS: AMI dated 11/11/92
SCSI host adapter: DTC 3270VL
Video Adapter: Diamond Stealth 24 VLB
It's a cheap clone from some company called Vektron.

I've even tried kicking the system to no avail :).

Please.. any help will be appreciated.
Thank you,
  AMB
