summary of CD-less installation options for FC3, and a question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



  a quick summary of a couple different posts describing CD-free
installation of FC3, in response to an earlier posting asking about
this by me.  (both solutions assume some form of red hat or FC on the
system already, or at least a grub-controlled install.)

  the first response referred to

http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/~colohan/docs/fedora_upgrade.html

which describes how to recursively copy everything out of the FC3
"isolinux/" directory, copy that under /boot, add a new stanza to
/etc/grub.conf and boot using that.  and that seems to work nicely.

  a second response was to copy the same files from under the
"images/pxeboot/" directory and do pretty much the same thing.
granted that PXE will undoubtedly offer more flexibility, if you're
doing a simple NFS-based install, is there any reason not to use the
first solution?  just curious.
