And the client machine uses a boot floppy? If so where do I find the
floppy image - Google gives lots of "doesn't work with FC5" links...
FC5 cannot boot from floppy.
You'll need to boot from the network.
Sounds like you still have a machine that can boot, therefore just a
little grub trickery will get a clean install of FC5 started.
Add a new section: /boot/grub/grub.conf
title fc5 install
kernel /isolinux/vmlinuz
initrd /isolinux/initrd.img
and copy the above two files from the FC5 install folders to a new
folder /boot/isolinux
Then choose this boot option when your current install boots.
You might also be able to download the iso's. If you can, you could
perform a hard disk install: point the installer at the location on hard
disk...you need to know / write down the partition and folder. This
would get around network reliability issues killing your install.
I did see that you got an upgrade going anyway !
