Re: [linux_chandigarh] Re: help booting dvd's without using a dvd (Copying and all)

 
Thanks for replying Hitesh,
              The prob wasnt making an iso but thanks anyway. The solution on Digit was RHat specific (i think so unless i change initrd and others).I think i found the result it was on Debian's manual -<http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch-install-methods.en.html#s-boot-drive-files>

PS: i got the debian DVD(with 6100+ packages) with PC Quest magazine this December. i Think 'linux for u' had Fudora core 3 this time (i'll be having it next very soon)

Bye,
    Antar
