John,
I'm not sure what you mean here. The boot floppy only contains the kernel 
image needed to boot your / partition.
 After initial boot "/boot" shows the way to go and the / partition takes over 
using the specified kernel.
Startx is along way away from the bootdisk. Whatever your problem with nvidia 
is, a bootdisk won't change it ever.

So tell us what's up.

Good luck,
HarM
