I have a server with no internal floppy drive. I need to access a floppy disk during the install to provide additional hard drive drivers to the setup. I used the F6 USB floppy drive fix, but it doesn't seem to work. The setup says it could not find the floppy drive. I'm using an Iomega external drive. Anyone have any suggestions?

slipstream the install with the drivers instead. No floppy required. Lots of hits using google.
