I have an older machine that I wish to install Gentoo Linux on, but its BIOS
does not support booting from the CD-ROM drive.  How can I make a boot
floppy for the install?  Currently, there is no operating system on the hard
drive in the system, so I cannot access the CD from that computer.

Thanks for your help!
