Hi everybody, I'm willing to install the Fedora Core 3 on my laptop (Thinkpad R50) . I got the installation CDs from a friend which told me that the first CD can't be used to boot the system and kickoff the install. On the /readme of that CD it written that bootdisk.img can be used to bootstrap the installation from a USB stick. I tried the following from my aging Mandrake 9.2 distro. : % dd if=/mnt/cdrom/image/bootdisk.img of=/dev/sda4 Where /dev/sda4 is my USB stick which is unmounted. I '% reboot' the machine w/ my USB stick plugged, told the BIOS to boot from a HDD USB (which correctly detected my stick) and crossed my finger... -> Nothing, the system just displays "Missing operating system" and hangs.. Any idea ? How to bootstrap the installation from a USB stick ? Thanks in advance.
