Bug#65013: boot-floppies
I used the kernel coming with the boot-floppies, 2.0.38.
The BIOS settings might be the answer. I slighty overclocked the processor
before installing Debian, thus increasing the PCI bus speed too (from 33 to 37
MHz). I went back to a quieter pace and things seem to be better.
Thank you very much for your help. I'm a bit sorry, since this issue
apparently isn't a real bug with boot-floppies, rather a BIOS settings problem.
Excuse me for this.
Eric.
