Bug#52819: boot floppy crashes

[Joe Lombrozo <JoeCool22@MailAndNews.com>]

Package: boot-floppies
Version: 2.1

My problem is this: i'm installing Debian Linux on a Intel 486 w/ 12mb 
RAM...the CD drive isn't able to be booted from so i tried to install using 
the rescue floppy (resc1440.bin copied using rawrite2.exe on Win98); however, 
everytime i use the rescue floppy, it crashes after displaying the info text 
and:

boot: linux..

my question is this...is this a common problem? is there an easy way out of 
this? or do u have no clue what i'm talking about..:) anyway, thanx for 
looking at this...
Joe
