I just got the NeXTStep3.0 CD and that boot floppy. I don't have a floppy drive  
and thought I could just copy the floppy over to the good ol' OD 
and then do a 
b od

someone told me that it wouldn't be that easy. Does anyone have an idea 
what the problems might be and what I should do?

Thanks,
