Is pcmcia included on the floppies as well? i don't recall off of the top of my head, but i don't think so. I will look again when i get home. When I have the time i may try to make a more updated set of floppies, but if anyone else wants to, go for it. ]]>https://bbs.archlinux.org/profile.php?id=15522005-05-10T23:51:17Zhttps://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=87093#p87093Actually I've never used floppies on linux. I got read of my floppydrives long time ago.
