Numerous alternatives have been suggested, but they have failed for me. Rejected alternatives include:
1) Find an unused partition (well, I don't have one)
2) Use BootMagic to boot from CDROM - (I tried it, but the cdrom doesn't seem to be properly supported after anaconda starts)
3) Use USB pendrive (sorry, machine is too old for that, and ROM doesn't support anything except floppy and hard drive)
4) Use tftp - gosh ... I wouldn't even know where to start for that.
I personally wouldn't mind if the two diskette method of FC1 (one kernel and one for drivers) became several diskettes. I then used the network and finished the load via FTP.
Or, perhaps the minimum hardware requirements of Fedora should be amended.
So, I hope the proper people can give this some consideration.
If I have posted this to the wrong mailing list, I'm sure I'll hear about it.
