I compiled a new linux kernel without any network drivers, and copied
to the rescue disk.
After inputing the hostname, it could not find any drivers, which
was fine. But the next screen was badly written. I just wanted to
exit the network config. The correct reply to exit was 'No', but
you could not tell from the screen.
It should request the rescue disk and copy my new linux kernel, but
it copied the default linux kernel to the boot floppy disk.

This network mess has all been fixed.
