Oops! You're right, 2.2r0 doesn't boot either. Must have been a 
problem with my memory--the wet one. I could have sworn I have 
(or had) a system here that booted with 0 but not 3, though. 
Maybe I'm confusing 0 with hamm CDs, which I guess are still 
floating around here somewhere. Did I use them as rescue disks 
back when I was getting the PCMCIA on potato-r0 straightened out?

Be that as it may, the worst thing is that the Toshiba is very 
sensitive about boot floppies too. So far I have three for 
Progeny that fail, all at different stages.

Thanks for the background info and sorry for the confusion!
