Tim,
  This sometimes happens when users have floppy devices that are not on
/dev/fd0 or /dev/fd1.  If this pertains to you then the solution is to
make a disk image of the boot disk using dd (dd if=/dev/???
of=/tmp/disk.img) - where ??? is the floppy device.  You can then point
the installer to use the disk image instead of the floppy drive to load
DOS.
