I guess nobody sugested abandoning floppy completely, but having such a CD would be nice. You could always write CD-RW, so it is not "wasted". > ??? > > I have installed from the network floppy and used XFS and LVM (although > with some issues).

See the bug in the bugzilla - you have to create floppy with XFS tools yourself, since the tools didn't fit on the floppy. It is marked as WONTFIX. Making a CD instead would be a nice way how to get out of this.
