Boot floppy for slack 12
 

New toy for Christmas, a game that runs only on windows - I have that, on a second hard drive not used for months, also has slackware 12 on it.
Problem: I've lost the floppy that booted that drive, and makebootdisk only tells me that slack 12 can't be put on a floppy!

So I can boot slackware with install dvd, but not windows.

In /etc/lilo.conf I have:
boot = /dev/fd0
and at bottom
#Windows bootable....
other = /dev/hdb1
label = windows
table = /dev/hdb
#windows bootable blah blah
#Linux ....begins
image = /boot/vmlinuz
root = /dev/hdb5
label = Linux.smp
read-only
#Linux blah blah ends

Can anyone tell me how to start windows, or even better, make another boot disk?

I use the Super Grub Boot Disk now that the kernel is too big for a floppy.

Had it booting from a floppy using lilo, there should be a way to do it again.

pkgtool showed the answer - it's one of the choices for installing lilo.
Problem is no more.

I'm glad you figured it out.
