Can anybody help with this problem?

I downloaded disk1 (and disk1.nvd, disk1.orig)
from ftp://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9/pcdist,
transferred disk1 to a floppy with putimg,
and upon rebooting got the following:

Protected-mode bootstrap
hd0: LBA 8248472 sectors, -71237632 bytes
.bad magic 0xeb29904f not a Plan9 executable!
Boot devices: hd!0 h!0
boot from: 

I'm using the following platform:
	Pentium 200 MHz, 32MB
	1.44 MB floppy
	4 GB IDE HD
	3Com EtherLink III 3C579
	S3 Trio64V+

Any suggestions?

Pat
