No, just a user.

You did a mistake or I was not enough clear. I was able to do all these
stuffs, and I've done them.
My request is for the community. I received since a week many messages from
Debian users that are not able to do this and want to use their 2650 with
Debian instead of the Dell recommended RedHat distribution!!! I can't pass
all my time to answer them.
Sorry, but I think to be of the Debian Boot Team responsibility to build a
working set of floppies, and better a cdrom. Not me.
