Well, you could give us a chance to actually help you. We have been known 
to do that.

I, for one, am happy to accept your apology. But that doesn't make it 
possible for me to help you. 

So, here's what I think you can do:

Lay out your needs and leave it at that. If you go on and on about what 
you think, what can we possibly tell you? You are certainly welcome to 
your opinions. But, that won't get you a working linux system, or much 
good will.

So, let me try again:

You should download an up to date floppy disk image. Even at 2.5 you can 
do that. Let's see if we can get the first step talking
