Emergency Boot Floppy won't fit on 1.44 Mb floppy

[hovey]

New installation of SCO 5.0.6 on a Compaq ML370 G2. Tualatin processor; (3) 18gig scsi drives; DAT drive; CDROM; Floppy.

When making making the Emergency Boot Floppy, it errors saying it has run out of room on the floppy. (Root floppy completes fine.) Really need to make a "system specific" boot floopy, not a generic.

Is there some way I can trim down the kernel, or something else?????

Yes, you need a smaller kernel:

BUT: I really wouldn't use these. Buy one of the supertars:

These guys can make bootable cd's or dvdram disks too and make better ebd's.
