Inspired by the knowledge that I was not alone and doing
something completely inane I returned and tried to do an install of a CE
using the floppy as the boot device.
It reached the end of the installation cycle and seems to believe
it is indeed an LCG2 CE. However it still has network problems - how it
managed to nfs mount the disk in order to read the profile and get hold of
the rpms, when the network is not working is beyond my comprehension!
This is not a definitive answer - but I thought it was enough of a
step forward to report and perhaps someone else can shed light on what is
going on
