[olug] Debian downloads

The simplest solution in my opinion is to go download and create the 2.4 
kernel boot floppies (can be gotten from 
http://www.geniussystems.net/debian/dists/woody/main/disks-i386/current/images-1.44/bf2.4/) 
  NOTE:  That is my local Debian mirror in Omaha running on my 
computer...Then just boot from those floppies and do a net install with the 
source being http://www.geniussystems.net/debian and all should be good...to 
do a net install you may only need the rescue and root floppies depending on 
if it sees your network card or not...

Any problems ask...someone can help,
Nate
