latest bf's and network install

[Aaron Van Couwenberghe <avancouw@calpoly.edu>]

Hi all -

  Thanks a lot for the new boot floppies. They almost finish everything up
for me, but when I ask to install the base system by http, dbootstrap hangs.
Specifically, after it's gotten a few seconds into the transfer, the entire
system grinds to a halt; I can't even do anything on the other console.

I may have just gotten a bad mirror, or bad media... I'll try again with a
new copy, but I doubt this will have any effect.

FYI - this is on a Gateway Solo 2500 laptop (Intel Celeron 300) and PCMCIA
worked just fine for me.

I wish I had a mini-CD writer so I could have one media with the kernel, the
root disk, the base system, and the drivers on it. that would just be
cool...

I'm like a person whose hands were kept numb, without sensation from the
first moment of awareness -- until one day the ability to feel is forced into
them. And I say "Look! I have no hands!" But the people all around me say:
"What are hands?"
