HTH, Mike |> | | first, I apologize for hi-jacking, but this reminds me of something | I've been wondering about for a while now. Some time back RedHat | moved away from being able to make boot floppies to boot their | installations. What the heck did they do that for?

But the "rest of that story" is that there is now a larger floppy type image that can be placed on a USB flash stick to perform in exactly the same way. Just boot from the flash stick. I use that method all the time on stand alone machines, or to convert Windows machines.
