Hi again,

I mounted the ISO file with 

mount -o loop /mnt/sda5/MandrakeLinux-8.2beta3-CD1.i586.iso /mnt/cdrom

and created the boot floppy with

dd if=/mnt/cdrom/images/hd.img of=/dev/fd0

I tried this up to three times with three different floppies and always got 
the following message:

Loading hd.rdz........ (8 dots)
Boot failed: please change disks and press a key to continue


I hope I'm not bothering you with newbie questions. I have been using Linux 
on and off for 2,5 years now, but I realize I don't know a lot yet. I have 
been pondering if I would post this here. I decided I would. Who knows it is 
a problem with that image, then it would be bad if it went into the final 
version.

Jo
