The Machine seems to be only netbootable
The beige G3 is also able to boot from CD. Insert CD and hold down
"C"
on the keyboard while the machine powers up, searches for startup
devices, finds the CD and then begins to boot it. You can then
release
the "C" key. If you have a working CD drive, that might be simpler?
Check out http://www.debian.org/CD/netinst/
I'm sorry, but you are both wrong. Such machines are neither
netbootable
nor CD-bootable, except for specially mastered non-free CDs which
Debian
does not provide. You MUST use a floppy, unless you pull the HD and
image
it on another machine.
