Nejdříve si připravíme/stáhneme obrazy disket, například z us.debian.org.

# wget http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/sarge/main/installer-i386/current/images/floppy/boot.img
# wget http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/sarge/main/installer-i386/current/images/floppy/root.img
# wget http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/sarge/main/installer-i386/current/images/floppy/net-drivers.img

Stažené obrazy zapíšeme na diskety

# dd if=boot.img of=/dev/fd0
# dd if=root.img of=/dev/fd0
# dd if=net-drivers.img of=/dev/fd0
