Hi, Thanks for the help. I actually figured this out myself but now I know that it was the right way to do it. People would probably avoid many of these problems if the installation program was cleaver enough to list the fat32 partition as a possible source for the base installation. Simply selecting it and typing in the path to the directory should do the trick.
