Floppy boot install of Fedora for CD install via USB Sony DVD DRX-500ULX?

[Mark G. Spencer]

I'm about to try and install Fedora on an older laptop that only has a floppy drive and USB.  I have a USB DVD drive that I would like to use to install the Fedora CD's.  Does anyone know if this is possible?  I'm going to try the standard bootdisk.img on Fedora Core 1 CD1 and hope that it allows the DVD drive via USB to be used for installation.  ;)

Thanks,

Mark
