I tried this and it still failed with a "Error 50 with image" when I
booted.  I tried several "new" floppy disk and still got the same
results.

The problem turned out to be with the images at ftp.debian.org.  I went
to ftp.cdrom.com and got the images from them and it is working fine.

Thank you everyone for the help.

You may get more questions as I continue building the box.  It is a
Sun IPX with 32MB RAM and 424MB HD I am using for a web server.
