I'm not sure what you are asking for.

If you want to install over a network where the cdrom is on another
machine on the network, you can look in "images" directory of the cdrom
and make a floppy of network.img.  This will let it install over ftp or
nfs.

If what you want is a working linux system that fits on a floppy, check
out tomsrtbt at www.toms.net/rb  It's a basic linux distribution that fits
in a floppy.  Has most necessary hardware drivers built in.
