If you can, create the install floppies on the same drive.  Would involve a 
bit of swapping unfortunately.  Also, I have found out recently that most 
of my blank floppies are toast - I can't remember the last time I bought a 
new one.

This has been a great source of frustration for me in the past, not knowing 
whether there was a problem with the CD, the drive, or the install program.  
With eCS 1.1 I found eventually that I had a bad CD and made a new copy 
from the on-line image file.  But you said the Win2k CD would not boot 
either...

Good luck!
