Its really very handy if you already have some version of linux on the system and you want to install a new one. You can mount the iso image, get the vmlinux and initrd for the installer off it and make a new grub entry to boot them, then reboot and choose install from hard disk, pointing at the iso you just had mounted. No need to crawl under your desk to get to the DVD drive (or no need for a DVD drive if you are installing on a system with only a CD). I always do my next new version of fedora installs this way. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
