I think you need to use Anaconda to build a new install image. The major thing you want out of this is a single bootable floppy image with your driver(s) on it. You _can_ create a 2.88 Mbyte image if necessary, and create a bootable CD with the image on it. Read through this for starters. http://www.linuxworks.com.au/redhat-installer-howto.html#s1 The best place for followup questions about that process is the anaconda-list. Alternatively, it's just possible you can work some magic in the %pre section of the ks file. As I recall, the network's up then. I don't know whether the client software you will need (ftp) is available. If you can put your kit on an nfs server, you should be able to get it that way. -- Cheers John. Please, no off-list mail.
