should not make a different.  On the cdrom in the 'images' directory there
are some boot images.  You can copy them to floppy:
i.e.: dd if=/mnt/cdrom/images/boot.img of=/dev/fd0

 &gt; Hello all,
 &gt; 
 &gt;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I have a friend who is getting a old pentium \
machine. I am &gt; not sure that 
 &gt; the BIOS will have the capability to boot from the CD-ROM. If \
 &gt; it does not, 
 &gt; how would I go about making a boot-up disk? Could I make him \
 &gt; one from my 
 &gt; box? He will be installing 7.2 and I have 7.0, does that make \
any &gt; difference? Any and all help appreciated. Thank you \
in advance. &gt;
