I thought I would pass on the following gem, since it is relevant to a couple of conversations from the last meeting.

There is a bootable floppy (sbootmgr.dsk available under the slackware-current/rootdisks directory of usual mirror sites) called the smart boot manager (http://btmgr.sourceforge.net) which allows booting from places that your (older) BIOS may not support as a boot source, including so-called non-bootable CDROM drives.
