There aren't boot floppy images because the 2.6 kernel has grown and
so you can't fit everything needed on a floppy.  boot.iso is there or
you can boot the kernel + initrd from an existing Linux installation.
Comment 2 Matthieu MARC 2004-02-19 07:03:28 UTC 
Why not using kernel 2.4 for installation, just like before ?
