I do have PartedMagic on a stick to make a /boot partition but it would be best to have the f11 install on a usbkey containing the full install iso - and that way I would not need to download a set of rpms for each of the installs to different machines - in addition the network install has a rather slow download of the files from the net. I was thinking that a single download of the install iso (around 3.5GiB) would then allow all the installs to multiple machines which in the end saves bandwidth overall. In addition when installing from usbkey the file transfer into the HD on the machine is at usb2 speeds rather than from the net at a few hundred kiB/sec which means the overall time to install is a lot more convienient from a usbkey - and it saves network traffic for other people too once I have completed the one download of the initial iso. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Making-an-F11-bootable-install-key-for-F11--tp23931287p23937447.html Sent from the Fedora Test List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
