i don't believe that you can have a 3mega floppy disk on alpha... True... but with the 2.4 kernel it just won't fit in the 1.5Mb image... anyway, nowadays most systems are installed booted from CDrom / harddisk... ia64 has ls120 floppy disk.. ls120 = IDE? If so, someone with screwdriver skills could probably fit one into an alpha...

I had a similar issue when trying to install cooker via tftp for sparc. Maybe this script mod would work for me as well? Good luck to me...
