Thanks Bruce. I need to take some time off to study about grub boot
floppies a bit more. Nothing seems to work as expected and I need to
get into the basics a bit more. I've run into problems such as
/etc/fstab not having entries for floppies that should be there. Very
frustating......
The funny thing is, I had no problem getting 6 different Linux systems
working. They all boot and run properly but I get hung up on making a
boot floppy.
