I am trying to setup Windows 2000 server using a USB floppy. I press F6 to
install additional drivers and the PERC4 driver gets installed OK. Then
press enter to setup, then accept the license, after that, Windows loads and
would normally begin to copy files. The first file it needs is the PERC 4
driver again, but now Windows cannot read from the USB floppy. Setup just
stays at please put disk....in drive A. Does anybody know any workaround(s)
or specific model of floppy drive? Thanks much

What kind of floppy drive are you using? There are literally only a couple
that are supported by Windows 2000 setup (don't know which off the top of my
head - but can check).
