I still understand how to install muLinux into hd.

I tried your instructions as the following:

1. boot with base & ext floppy.
2. run clone, but some errors appears.
    when I choose option 2 (ext2), it tell me to put a startup floppy.
    what is the startup floppy?

I just want to install muLinux into my 250MB hd, and want to partition a
Linux swap
partition (about 32MB) and the rest for a Linux native partition. Do you
have simple
instructions? Thanks for your reply!
