I kept trying, changing to idepci flavor and using different diskettes,
and finally got one to format without errors.
Now I am just using lilo on hda and when I give up I
dd if/boot/boot.0300 of=/dev/hda bs=446 count=1
(from page 137 of _Running Linux_)
My big problem now is hard disk errors that
When I choose create boot floppy from the potato distribution,
I always get format errors. The diskettes are high-density 1.44 meg
floppies, ibm preformatted. Any suggestions?
