Debian boot floppy!!!

Ok, i downloaded Debian 2.2 rev_6 last night. I burned all of the three disks. Now, in the past with mandrake, redhat, and freebsd, there is always a boot floppy image on the cd. Well, for some reason i cant find it on the debian cd. All i need the disk for is to boot the cd. The system i am installing this on doesnt have the ability to boot to the cd on it's own. Is there some way to do this without using a distrobution specific floppy? Or is there a Debian 2.2 rev_6 boot floppy image?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

-Mr.K

The README.txt text file will tell you about installation and how to make the disk from either DOS or linux. You will probably only need the rescue.bin file in the images-1.44/ directory since you already have the CD's. The rescue disk will get you booted up and you can point the rest of the installation to your CD's for everything it needs.

Good Luck !

jaa
