Re: Unable to install vanilla version of Woody
OK, it's my fault since I am new to Linux and was not too clear on what was
being booted. Basically, I had some difficulty getting the dual boot from NT
to work properly, and for some reason this machine can't be boot from the
USB based floppy. I have been using the install disc to boot the system and
mounting them via the rescue command. The disc that I kept using was disc 1,
which defaults to 2.2.20-idepci.
Sorry for the false alarm.
