having touble getting the dist.fs floppy to boot in a compaq 386/25e.
tried both the regular dist.fs floppy, and the dist.0.1.compaq.fs
floppy from met.super.org.  

when i boot, the floppy light goes on for three seconds, then the
machine hard boots; repeat.

any suggestions would be appreciated.  do i have to regress to 0.0?

thanks

scott
