It's simple if you can boot from a USB stick. (In my experience installing Fedora-12 in this way is much easier than any previous version of Fedora). But the question is: can one install from the stick in some way if the machine does _not_ support booting from it? The suggestion was that one should copy vmlinuz and initrd from the stick to the hard disk, and add a stanza to grub.conf to boot from this. My question is: would clicking on "Copy to hard disk" at that point look at the USB stick for the data to copy? I should really try this instead of talking about it - but I have already installed Fedora-12 on this machine by PXEboot. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
