had quite the major brain fart... have been trying to install Redhat Linux
v2.1 from Slakwares install directions... DUH!
But, that posed another problem, slakware helped me create a separate boot
and root floppy for install (which obviously isn't correct in what I'm
attempting to install)... So, I created a BOOT image from Redhat's HOWTO's
(boot0000.img) by using Rawrite.exe in DOSUTILS of the CDROM. It didn't ask
me to create a ROOT disk, and I can't find any doc's to tell me how to
create a separate ROOT disk... Is it even necessary to create a separate
ROOT & BOOT diskette for installation purposes? or does the rawrite.exe put
them both on 1 disk? If so, why, when booting off that floppy, does it
ask/prompt me to (once booted on boot diskette) load the ROOT disk? Can I
leave the 1st disk in and continue w/install? or do I need that "other"
disk?
