How did the install go, first of all? :)

You can do as Brock suggested above, or grab
http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/rule/updates.tar

Put a floppy in the drive, and say
'/sbin/mke2fs -m0 /dev/fd0'
mount /mnt/floppy
cp updates.tar /mnt/floppy/
tar -xvf /mnt/floppy/updates.tar
rm -f /mnt/floppy/updates.tar
umount /mnt/floppy

You should then be all set. Sorry for the confusion.
