Re: A Challenge...

Hello Samuel,


I would install all the base floppies at the following FTP address:

ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/potato/main/disks-i386/2.2.20.0.1-2000-12-03/images-1.44/

I don't happen to have my potato CD handy, so I can't verify 
if these files exist on the official CD set..
