boot disks

[Matthew Carpenter]

As much as I love ubuntu, I'm afraid I need some translation of your question.
Or perhaps a few more details.  Boot disk?? From the install disk??

You're talking a floppy disk?  And you are wanting to make it with the 
assistance of the install CD?

What are your constraints?  What purpose will this disk serve?  Interactive 
boot or main boot?  If you are interested in an interactive boot disk, there 
is a live CD and/or DVD if they are good enough.

If you require a floppy, please detail more of your needs and constraints.
