Re: /install/floppy

[Adrian Zaugg <adi@ente.limmat.ch>]

The installation manual for alpha states:
"For example, if you have a floppy disk drive on your machine, it can be 
used to install Debian." 
(http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/alpha/ch02s02.html.en) But 
unfortunately there is no floppy image around for sarge. You can still 
use the woody floppies from:
ftp://mirror.switch.ch/mirror/debian/dists/woody/main/disks-alpha/current
and dist-upgrade afterwards.

Regards, Adrian.
