No, no. Tom's Rootboot basic boot program fits on one floppy.
Untar the 2.1 M file on your hard drive, not directly on a floppy and
follow instructions, and you will probably be okay. Tom's puts an
extended file system and close to 1.7 MB on a 1.4 MB floppy, but I've
seen this work. IIRC (it's been a while since I used Tom's) the rest of
the download is installers and docs.
