The Challenge:
An old laptop, with no OS that can only boot from a floppy. I want to
install FreeBSD.
I have a USB CDROM, but I cannot make it bootable at the BIOS level.
I have a network card (PCMCIA) but no knowledge of how to get drivers
for it on a FreeBSD install floppy.
I'm pretty sure I'll have to either install entirely from floppies (not
worth the time) or from the CDROM or network, but I don't know how to
make those devices work from a blank hd and a floppy.
Couldn't you install with the two floppys, then download the rest
via ppp or pppoe?
