2. Obtain a floppy from Yolanda or PREP.

3. Proceed with the instructions.

4. Ta Da! You should have a happy, bouncing baby Linux box.

B. 5.0.2 CDROM dated August 31, 1998 or before:
 

1. Get the installation instructions as above.

2. Obtain a floppy from Yolanda or PREP or make your own:
 

a. On a Windows machine: insert the CD and double click on this path: My Computer -> CDROM -> dosutils -> rawrite

b. A DOS window will appear that will ask where the boot image is. This depends on where the CDROM drive is located, but it is usually at "d:\images\boot.img"

c. The next prompt is to locate the floppy. Again this depends where the floppy drive actually is but this is generally "a:"

d. After it's done writing to the floppy, reboot the machine and procede

3. At step 5, Install Type, will select CDROM install and it will skip ahead to step 10. This just skips the ethernet setup section for the time being. You will be given the option to set this up later on in the installation. Proceed as in the instructions
