I downloaded the images.zip and used RaWrite to pu them on 5 1/4" floppies
from my Win95 machine. I took them down to the basement and fired up an
old XT clone. Boot messages appear normal (it identifies 2 floppies and 1
HDD), but when it asks for the root floppy, the drive light never goes off.
I tried swapping disks and pressing enter, but the system hangs there.
Has anyone else found this? It may be bad floppies, since the same thing
happened when I tried it on another XT clone. I'll try it again as soon as
I find two more 5 1/4 disks.
