RE: installing linux debian on Toshiba Satellite
Actually, I did.
I have successfully completed a floppy install for the basic hamm
distribution.
The problem was and is that everything I can find presumes that I
already have a mounted source device or network connection to complete
the install and build the network connection.
This reply was a general statement on the level of help I have gotten
from this list, which is none unless you count the flame storm I just
unleashed.

Have you checked the FAQ-O-Matic on the debian site?
