    hi...

    still struggling with this issue..

    for those new to the problems, we have a number of systems that only have
    floppies.. we need to be able to install FC3 on the systems. we have the FC3
    iso files on a http/ftp server on the network. our need is to somehow come
    up with a floppy that will allow us to insert the floppy, load any required
    drivers, and allow us to start the Fedora installation process.

    we imagine the floppy should have what ever allows it to do a basic shell/os
    install. in other words, we shouldn't initially assume that the current
    underlying HD has a valid OS.

    we know this was posible with RH8, as some of the machines had RH8 on them
    already...

    any ideas/thoughts on this...
