No issue there: running a 1680 myself... Never managed to get that working on a physical drive though. > Try copying the files to a standard 1.44MB floppy. I Agree: 1440 is always the safest choice. But AFAIK the floppy image on the ISO *is* a 1440 == I just looked at the syslinux.cfg inside the image and I noticed it specifies /dev/fd0 as the boot device. Checking my own box however it does not allow me to mount the floppy as /dev/fd0 and neither did my old 1.2 Bering distro. This may be hardware related, although my old distro ran on a physical P66, but I've always had to specify /dev/fd0_u1440 on the old box and currently use /dev/fd0_u1680 on the VM environment. BTW: I use the CDROM as the boot device and the floppy only has the LEAF.CFG and DB files.
