But you have to choose an option first, ie, make a lilo bootdisk, make a
bootdisk using the image from this distribution, i belive there are 4
choises.
You use the arrow keys to choose one or another item.
If you are choosing one or another and still get the problem, is the disk
write protected.??
Is it a "clean formatted floppy".??
Other than that i am at a loss at the minute.
If all else fails, you can "skip" the process, then use the bootdisk which
you used to start the install as i suggested before. At least that should
get you into the syste, if it was installed correctly.
I am sure someone else who has more experiance with Redhat will help you
more.
