Ray,
Thanks, but no progress yet. I used dd to copy to an unmounted
ext2-formatted floppy the files created by mkbootdisk: boot.msg,
initrd.msg, ldlinux.sys, syslinux.cfg, and vmlinuz. I also copied lsh

Quick followup ... I wasn't thinking carefully enough before. Since you're
using syslinux, the floppy must be a DOS floppy. You can't mount a DOS

I had a nice bootable floppy that was self-contained (held a kernel),
but I inadvertantly overwrote it and need to create another.
I used mkbootdisk , and it works in the sense that it
holds a kernel that boots my machine and loads my operating system
from hd.
However, I want to have it load a

I guess I was thinking along the right lines when I mounted
the 7.2 version whilst running the 6.1 version except that I
probably didn't mount it correctly because it didn't show up
