Actually, you won't be able to remove the ext2 partitions with windows

What needs to happen is boot using something similar to tom's

With 768 meg or RAM, you'll be hard pushed to use any swap at all I'd have
thought!
Before you go off fidling with partitions, I'd fire up your installation

Reboot with the floppy in and MEMTEST will boot automatically.
What does 'mount' say?

Are you quite sure your BIOS won't allow a CDROM boot? It must be a truely
ancient laptop if it doesn't.
It's not a Dell Insprion is it?
What normally happens is that the CDROM can be connected top the parallel
port via a special cable which carries the signal and enough power for the
drive
Extremely ancient! I have an Olivetti Echos P90s. I've checked and sadly
it's not possible to connect it via a cable :-(

There is a possiblity of ur cdrom being an archaic type and the new kernel
does not support the same. Try to reload the os once again and then
$ mount /mnt/cdrom
then try and access the same.
Alternatively
Search for the folder containing drivers for the CDrom drive and re
install the driver
The recovery disks I've seen just wipe out everything and set the
machine up in an arbitrary predetermined way. Therefore I would say
that it doesn't matter what you try - at worst you can put it back the
way it came.
