I've got a question: I want to install Woody (which I have on cdrom) on a 486 with a 3 1/2 - drive and a cdrom-drive, but without the ability to boot from cdrom. The problem is, the box has only 8 megs of ram, which - according to the help texts of the installer on the cdroms is not enough

Hello, I'm as usual tempted to test the boot floppies but to be honest getting floppy images, dding (very slow). Booting with floppies (slow) is just too time consuming with limited time for a test. On the other hand if there would be a mini ISO image with content of floppy images + base ...
