Hi.
Let's assume you are using RH.
I suggest the best way out would be to copy the "autoboot" directory and
the "autoboot.bat" and "loadlin.exe" files, all in "dosutils", and simply
run "autoboot.bat".
You can use your normal DOS floppies and copy the files one by one.
Keep the directory structure same, or you'll have to modify the
autoboot.bat file. (Not too hard. You can type the command. just see the
contents of autoboot.bat and you will understand)
Using floppies to boot is a waste (lotsa experience! ;-)
