Generally speaking,
tomsrtbt is about the best possible floppy disk option for linux networking.
There are other floppy-based linuxes around but if Tom's doesn't work, my guess is that they won't work either.
If your computer is older and is not using some bizarre network card, then my guess is that Tom's will work with it but you need to do extra work in order to activate the right driver like doing a modprobe xxx and then add the appropriate irq= or io= values.
This is especially true if you have an ISA network card, which was popular in most older Pentium-1 and 486 computers.
