Hi, I'm off to cruise through the docs, but some quick help on this would be appreciated. I have a booting, network-capable system, but it's not running well. I'd like to install a clean copy of Sarge to a spare hard drive. The Sarge net-install CD was a total failure (see rant below, or ignore it). So is there any easy way to run the base install to a local partition? Once it's there I can boot it with grub and I'll be set. The Apt-HOWTO doesn't seem to cover this. Can dpkg or dselect do it?
[rant] Burned a copy of the netinst CD for Sarge and had a _bad_ experience: dialogs scroll options off the top of the display, no way to page up and see what the first six options were, operations fail and I'm told "go back" to a previous sections but no mechanism to do so is provided (reboot & start over?), attempt to load Tulip network driver fails because the module can't be found although I'm booted from the durn install CD.
