                     32: Booting off the CD provides an El Torido 2.88MB floppy image

                     34: <li><strong>Floppy A:</strong><p>
                     35: This 1.44MB floppy image contains the most common drivers.  As a general rule,
                     36: you will find that the missing drivers are ones which need large microcodes
                     37: to run.  This includes a few of the more rare scsi cards, gigabit ethernet

                     41: Due to space considerations, you will find that some other drivers are missing.
                     42: In particular, support for most PCMCIA devices are missing, as are really

                     44: setting up modern server type systems, since it contains almost all the SCSI

                     46: <li><strong>Floppy C:</strong><p>
                     47: This 1.44MB floppy image contains many cardbus and pcmcia device drivers.  It
                     48: is an excellent choice to use for laptops.  In most cases, one would discover
                     49: that Floppy A also works, but the odd laptop might benefit more from using this
