This floppy set will boot a SliTaz $stable$TYPE version. You can write floppies with SliTaz bootfloppybox, Windows rawrite or simply dd:

# dd if=fd001.img of=/dev/fd0

If you have a CD-ROM, a USB port and a USB key or a network card, but you can't boot these devices directly, then try floppy-grub4dos first. This 1.44Mb floppy provides tiny programs to boot these devices without BIOS support and some other tools.

$(cat $DIR/description.html)

Each floppy set detects disk swaps and can be used without a keyboard.

Good luck.

ISO image floppy set

You can restore the ISO image on your hard disk using:

# dd if=/dev/fd0 of=fdiso01.img
# dd if=/dev/fd0 of=fdiso02.img
# ...
# cat fdiso*.img | cpio -i
