> is there any way i can avoid having to boot through disquette? i am having
Its puzzling: You can install Debian from MS DOS very easily, but there seems to be no easy way to do this directly from an existing Linux system. We have a Mailserver without a floppy or CD drive. Someone mailed me, I could install the base system myself on the empy partition, and do some more fiddling around. I prefered to install a floppy drive from an older computer into the server. This way I have also some redundancy in booting: If I fondle with my harddisk too much, I can still try to save i using the rescue disk. Still a easy way to install directly from an existing Linux partition would be neat. Stef
