I missed it... are you using the boot-helper image and running the tftp
instruction? The newer versions of 5.x are too big to write directly onto
the floppy.
Also, I didn't see if the other question about 4.4 was answered... I think
4.4(7) fixes most of the issues in 4.4... at least the fixup smtp bug that
was reported was covered.
Good luck...

checksum error is an error in the image. Download a new image and use a
new floppy to make your binary. I moved from 4.4.x to 5.x w/o a problem on
520's w/32MB and 16MB flash
