Re: Toshiba 3100SX : "No BIOS32 etx..."



    First, be real sure you have written the floppy correctly.

Yes, the floppies are OK.

    If writing it from a different system doesn't help, try installing
    the uuencoded and gzipped version of the "fdflush" program

Wasn't as easy as it sounds--in the end it seems to work.

	cd /root (assuming the hard drive root is mounted on /root)
	fdflush
	dd if=/dev/fd0 of=floppy1 bs=1k
	gunzip < floppy1 | cpio -i

gunzip complains "stdin: decompression OK, trailling garbage ignored"; I
think this doesn't matter: Debian GNU/Linux is up and running.  Thanks,
Karl.
