I was recently following the advice in the Fedora-13 Installation Guide to setup a pxeboot server, and it recommended that one should read the syslinux documentation in /usr/share/doc/syslinux-3.84/syslinux.txt . (Actually, the Guide says syslinux.doc , but that seems to be a typo.) In any case, this document, which is dated 1994-2009, seems to be entirely concerned with "CREATING A BOOTABLE LINUX FLOPPY". There are several other places in the Fedora-13 documentation where I have come across mention of floppy disks. (And several Linux programs spend time looking for /dev/fd0 .) Do floppy disks still exist? Are computers with floppy drives still being made? It seems to me that as an absolute minimum any documentation mentioning floppy drives should at least explain how CDs can be used to the same end. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
