As a side note, use the diskette option as a last resort. They are by
no means as reliable as a cd, as a diskette written by one pc may show
up with unreadable sectors in another, and be virtually unreadable in
yet another. Invest in a good quality burner, and even then, test your
toolkit disks on a variety of hardware. A cd burned at 8x on my burner
is not always readable in other drives, but a slow-cooked one has no
problems.
