If you are using a floppy to boot Linux, you may need to specify
the location of your Linux root partition at boot time. This is
especially true if you are using the original installation floppy itself,
and not a custom boot floppy created during installation.
<P>
While booting the floppy, hold down <IMG BORDER=0 ALIGN=BOTTOM ALT="" SRC="img85.gif"> or <IMG BORDER=0 ALIGN=BOTTOM ALT="" SRC="img86.gif">. This should
present you with a boot menu; press <IMG BORDER=0 ALIGN=BOTTOM ALT="" SRC="img87.gif"> to see a list of available
options. For example, many distributions allow you to type
<P><TT> boot: <em>linux hd=<IMG BORDER=0 ALIGN=BOTTOM ALT="" SRC="img88.gif"></em>
<P></TT>
at the boot menu, where <IMG BORDER=0 ALIGN=BOTTOM ALT="" SRC="img89.gif"> is the name of the
Linux root partition, such as <tt>/dev/hda2</tt>. Consult the documentation
for your distribution for details.
