Ah, okay. I assume I can use the rescue floppy as a ramdisk to boot. I've done debian quite a bit, but havnt had the pleasure of ignoring the install floppy before; it probably wont be too bad. :) Im guessing the steps will be more or less like so: * Boot rescue disk * mkswap / mke2fs * mount src of base*tgz * mount e2fs partition * untar base onto the tobe / * go frob /etc to have the right *tab * reboot ?
