I have been running Mandrake 8 pre beta for a couple of weeks with only a few
problems. I decided to install v8 b1 last night. The install went fine (my boy loved
the pics) but I like to boot from floppy for now with b1. After Installation though,
the system looked at the floppy and continued to boot from hd (my 7.2 install).
I tossed the floppy into my laptop, and it reads fine. I decided to try a reinstall.
Same thing. However I can put my Mandrake 7.2 boot disk in and it will boot fine.
I reinstalled v8b1 like 4 times last night with no success other than a good install-
ation. Anyone have any idea why the bootdisk wont boot. I even tried a different
disk that formatted fine in my gf's machine (Win 98).
