Yeah, I had to resort to floppies recently to install Debian on a Pentium 3. The CD-ROM drive just refused to boot, even though there was a BIOS setting for it. It reminded me of my slackware days :)
Was it a SCSI drive, mayhap?
No, IDE. It just refused to boot on that PC. The same drive in any other PC I have is fine. It was a while ago now, so is no longer a problem.
