[ale] upgrade from HD

[Geoffrey]

Further research.  I just stuck a boot.img floppy in one of my boxes and 
  it asks for the language, then keyboard type, then installation 
method, the options are:

local cdrom
hard drive


Did you not get these options?  If not, then you must be using the wrong 
boot floppy.

I didn't have to buy my radio from a specific company to listen
to FM, why doesn't that apply to the Internet (anymore...)?
