You should only need the rescue, root, and driver floppies. The ones I use are either the reiserfs floppies (6 discs, you can find the images in the archives of this list), or here: ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/Debian2.2r3/main/disks-i386/current/ima ges-1.44/ (6 discs also)
hope this helps. There are some folks who have made a small (~20MB, I think) 'compact-cd' imatges, if your laptop supports cd booting. Look at the debian-cd archives for that info. the base-?.bin images are pretty much for people with special needs, etc. I assume. Though back in the day you had to make all the discs yourself. And you might be able to get away with the 'compact' floppies-- that makes 3 total discs, but I don't know about its pcmcia support. Give it a try! glen -----Original Message----- From: Harry Palmer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 10, 2001 04:31 PM To: [email protected] Subject: PCMCIA Installation Is this possible? Isn't there a simple procedure to get to a debian archive using a pcmcia network card (or modem) and a couple of floppies, or is it necessary to mess around creating 16 floppies?!
