Attach the port replicator, and use that parallel port. Had to do this to install Linux on mine from ZIP drive. Note that that parallel port is usually not lpt2 it's lpt3. (I'm assuming here that the port replicator comes with all systems, it does around here) Note that I've also heard of people doing it by suspending when the floppy is needed, and switching, then resuming. Might get really annoying if you have to do it more than 3 times, but it's kind of novel. -- .---------------------------------------Ottawa-Canada-GOSENSGO-----. / Trevor Boicey 1992 Celica GT 1975 MG Midget / `---- tboicey@brit.ca ------------------------------------------'
