3. Prepare Promise Driver Floppy

  1. Download appropriate driver from one of the two sites below and save the driver on one of the blank floppies. You can do this on any computer connected to Internet.

  2. Insert the floppy with the driver tar ball into a working Linux computer and type:

    mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy 
    cd /mnt/floppy 
    cp rhsmp-ft12014.tgz /tmp 
    tar xvzf /tmp/rhsmp-ft12014.tgz 
    cd / 
    umount /mnt/floppy

  3. Label the floppy »Promise FastTrack driver« and set it aside.
