I thought I'd convert an old win2000 system to Fedora V6, I
downloaded the CD-ISO's and burned them but I cannot find a Boot floppy creator or
windows installer on them as the PC does not have the ability to boot from CD-ROM, only
Floppy and HDD.
Help please as when I've installed linux in the past it's been easy to make a
small set of floppies and then it would install of CD-Rom in much the same way as
windows.
I really need help please, with big huggly, wuggles... ;-)

For problems like this, I like the oldbios boot disk. You can get it
from
http://oldfiles.org.uk/powerload/bootdisk.htm - it lets you
boot from a CD/DVD when your BIOS does not support it. It also works
when you have more then one CD/DVD drive, and the BIOS will not boot
from a CD when you have more then one drive.
