Re: Debian 1.2 resq1440 disk problem
If you currently have Debian 1.1 installed on the system, you don't need
floppies to upgrade. Just have "dselect" update the packages file and
install the packages.
If you have an odd problem with one machine reading the floppy, it is
often memory related - especially in the case of the Cyrix CPUs. Disable
the cache and re-enable it after you are finished with the floppies.
This generally helps the Cyrix systems. One or two users of other CPUs
reported that they eventually replaced SIMMS and the problem went away.
Thanks
Bruce
