Hi
Just a note.  I used the frugal install to pendrive in the latest version.  It worked great.  I grabbed it and an old USB BOOT floppy and went to another machine.  I think the floppy was from around version 1.5.  Booting from USB worked but my network did not come up.

Short version of story.  My old USB BOOT floppy and the new frugal install had different kernel versions.  Some needed modules did not get loaded.

Hope this helps someone.
good luck
