to make a boot disk...
(as root)
1. put floppy in drive
2. find which kernel image your using (vmlinuz, zImage, bzImage, etc...)
3. copy image to floppy (do not mount the floppy)
dd if=/boot/zImage of=/dev/fd0
if stands for infile, of stands for outfile
zImage is what my current kernel image is called
/dev/fd0 is the device name for the first floppy drive (a:\)
