if you can't install Fedora directly in your USB hardisk this must be
because the kernel havent suport for usb-storage.
The kernel used in the FC3 installer is the same as the one that the resulting installed system uses, and it does support USB. What doesn't support USB disks is the disk partitioning part of anaconda.
But you can make and image of and existing instalation into the
hardrive with a recompiled kernel that's enable suport for your
hard-drive.
Or you could connect up a drive using an IDE cable, install on to it and then put the drive in an external USB enclosure. You can then follow the instructions at http://www.simonf.com/usb/ to get it booting.
P.S. Please don't top-post on this mailing list.

tnx
I have read the simonf instructions.... I have two point that are not clear to me (that is most of it)
1) mkinitrd --preload=ehci-hcd --preload=usb-storage --preload=scsi_mod --preload=sd_mod /boot/usbinitrd.img 2.6.9-1.667smp
Why shall I use 2.6.9-1.667smp??? or what else??
2) If I have to use the modified mkinitrd for usb, what shall I do it???
Sorry but newbie to this kind of problems!!!!
