Thanks, I know I should have tried it myself, I had a feeling it might have been because of this.

Moments ago I just recompiled my kernel and produced a custom boot disk- oh joy, now my floppy boots at normal speed! Earlier George Bonser indicated that a boot floppy made with the tecra-safe.bin images exhibited "this feature" of a slow boot, however I had not used that image so I did not think this was the problem. The Debian 2.0 and 2.1 install procedure produces a slow floppy boot which was not the case pre 2.0. -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
