doyou provide Ubuntu on Floppy disk?

Hi,

There are instructions for installing without a CD drive here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/WithFloppies

However, depending on the specification of your computer, Ubuntu may not be the most appropriate Linux distribution. You may prefer something much smaller and with lower system requirements, such as Damn Small Linux. The system requirements for Ubuntu 7.10 are:

"Ubuntu is available for PC, 64-Bit and Mac architectures. At least 256 MB of RAM is required to run the desktop install CD. Install requires at least 4 GB of disk space."

Regards,

Chris

This is what I have: 760 IBM XL ThinkPad - 810 GB 3.5 Floppy 56K plus
10/100 Modems Wireless - Memory (RAM) 64MB - 350 MHz Processor Speed.

I have not tried to do anything yet since this will be my first time
doing anything like this. Do you have any advice for me?
