more boot floppies questions



i swear, i read all the readmes and did the websearches, but i don't
arrive. i am still baffled as to what these driver_[1-4].bin images
are supposed to be used for - or more likely, how they are supposed to
be used.

but right now, i am wondering why each of the falvors, vanilla,
compact, idepci, udma66, and safe, come with their own driver-1.bin
image, but only vanilla has driver-[2-4].bin as 1.44 images available.
what gives???

and maybe someone could tell me exactly when the disks created with the
driver-?.bin files are used, and how i used them.

yes, i am trying to do floppy-only installs until i can mount a local
nfs volume with the debian mirror. and yes, i need each of the
realtek, tulip, 3c59x, sis900, and ne modules, which are supposedly on
the driver-? disks.

help!
