Re: My BASIC Linux derivative SAMEL
Sure would be nice to get a bootable Linux that reliably downloads to,
and works in, a standard 1.4MB floppy disk. Sometimes on questionable
floppy disks (or perhaps their 3.5" drives), fdformat'ing for the
~1.7MB req of a tomsrtbt will fail whereas fdformat'ing for the
standard 1.4MB size will work fine (e.g., for the pair of standard
Slackware "boot" and "root" disks)
Having such a boot floppy would help recognize the N.I.C.'s and
display card's chipsets for effective BL3 netsetup and Slackware 4.0
Xserver installs.
Will SAMEL do this?
