Problem with a very old kernel/server!


Hi,
I need to make a floppy boot disk with a 2.4 kernel
How can I do this?
If I remember, I should use "rdev" command in order to tell kernel that the root device is, for example, /dev/md0.
Can I dd /boot/vmlinuz to /dev/fd0?
Thankyou!

I think he's up to 2.4. Full instructions up there.
