[SLUG] Pocket Linux Install Problem

OK, took your advice and tried to install Pocket Linux on a floppy instead
of Toms ... for the moment at least.

Downloaded rawrite3 and copied it to my IBM ThinkPad, did the same
with Pocket-Linux.

Ran rawrite3 and followed the prompts (file name and target location) to
install to drive "a".

The process completed and a dir of drive "a" produced garbage.

Rebooted the ThinkPad just for fun and it looked at the FD and then just
stalled.

What did I do wrong now, please? :-)

Thanks! Doc
