Hi,
Sorry for the newbie question, I've been searching the CentOS site and
googled, but I couldn't find an answer (probably my bad).
I want to install CentOS 4.5, but I'm having troubles with my CD reader.
How can I install it from an FTP server ?
If you already have a linux system, use LILO or Grub to boot the initrd
and vmlinuz:
ftp://ftp.di.uminho.pt/pub/centos/5/os/i386/isolinux/vmlinuz
ftp://ftp.di.uminho.pt/pub/centos/5/os/i386/isolinux/initrd.img
No special boot arguments are required. The initrd should prompt you the
method for installation and then you specify the ftp install.
Problem is my CD is unusable :(
If you don't have linux already installed, but have Win9x or DOS, use
loadlin to boot.
I can't install any Linux on the computer or DOS/Win Whatsoever :(
Otherwise, use an USB boot pen.
It's a P-III :(
Or try the smaller boot.iso, that may work better with your reader:
ftp://ftp.di.uminho.pt/pub/centos/5/os/i386/images/boot.iso
I'll try and see if my CD handles such a small file.
Thanks,
