Thisproblem was dealt with by an article in STart a year or so back. They told you how to create a floppy that would always be booted from even in systems where the normal booting is from the hard disk and even if there was no procedure for forcing a boot from floppy. I now have such a floppy (even though I don't need it because I can force the floppy boot via Control-Shift_Alternate. Don't exactly remember how it was done. -- _ _ o | __ | jmg@cernvax.uucp | | | | _ / \ _ __ _ __ _| jmg@cernvax.bitnet | | | | |_) /_) | __/_) | (___\ | (_/ | J. M. Gerard, Div.
