Hugh, kickstart is another option. Your first anaconda install will place a kickstart file in /root/anaconda-ks.cfg that you can use to automate the second install. You can also create a kickstart configuration using the program /usr/sbin/redhat-config-kickstart which can be launched from Redhat Menu -> System Tools -> Kickstart To use it for a new install, you could copy it to a floppy disk and enter the following at the linux install boot prompt: linux ks=file:fd0/anaconda-ks.cfg See this page for another method: file:///usr/share/doc/redhat-config-kickstart-2.4.2/redhat-config-kickstart-savefile.html Regards, -Matt -- mhelios - www.fedoraforum.org Registered Linux User #348963 / counter.li.org GnuPG KeyID: 0xCE9F8922 / gnupg.org
