Fast and easy. But for that you have to unpack the isos. With nfs you can just download the isos somewhere, burn the first one or make a USB boot drive image and you are set. Generally if you are testing through a set of betas, you can rename the iso files to the next version, use rsync to quick update them and the same boot CD will install the next beta/rc/final so you don't need a new one until the next release cycle. -- Les Mikesell les@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
