Comments/Problems:
Read the installation doc and FAQ. In the FAQ:
Question 10: Will there be support for Linux 2.6 kernels?
Answer: Boot with "linux26".
When I try this, I'm told it can't find any "linux26" kernel.
I get a feeling this is a Frequently Asked Question. Is there a dedicated
mailing list for the new installer?

I'm afraid that booting 2.6 from floppies is not currently supported due
to lack of space. I've noted this in the FAQ.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] AFAIK you're the first to ask about
booting 2.6 from floppies.
