Re: [9fans] Bootsetup will not create floppy



It is hardcoded, so your current options are:
1) download and use a boot floppy from Bell Labs[1] site, or
2) move your CD to another IDE cable (i.e. primary master on another
cable) and go through the installation process again.


Seems like there would be an option number:

3) Make a boot floppy, as discussed in update(8) and esp. the EXAMPLES subhead in prep(8).
