386 install
I have an old 386 on which I'd like to install Debian 2.2.
HP Vectra RS/20
10 Mb RAM
100 Mb DISK
Floppy 1,4 Mb
Floppy 1,2 Mb
The only way I can install on this config is to use the
floppy method. I have then created a set of boot floppies
with the "idepci" kernel flavour.
The boot process fails when introducing the root floppy.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is the end of the message sequence I use to get
for boot sequences.
(Nota: The image of the pinguin is displayed on
the top left corner of the screen - vga screen)

after introducing the idepci/root disk and pressing
the RETURN key most of the time I got the following
messages:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
RAMDISK: Compresssed image found at block 0
Uhhuh. NMI received. Dazed and confused, but trting to continue
You probably have a hardware problem with your RAM chips
Invalid compressed format (err=2)<5>VFS: Insert root floppy and press ENTER

Once I got the following messages!
