Sorry guys...no joy...;-((   I keep getting cannot mount floppy errors.  I
tried copying several ways...windoze filemanager...dos prompt using 'copy'
and rawrite; even downloaded right onto the floppy; on a couple different
'new' disks.   This was using updates-v0.7.1.tar..  I have to boot using
boot.img....then linux dd...get my cd loaded; it then asks me for the
updates disk...then it bombs.  Can't boot with the one liner...linux
updates dd.

  Could I be doing something wrong copying the disk to floppy...only thing
I didn't try yet was doing the copy in linux.  Yet OTOH the boot.img and
oldcdrom.img work well (used rawrite).  Await 'expert' advice...;-)).....G
