Hi This is continuation to my mail about nesting dyne:bolic. One of the reasons for asking was because my cd/dvd drive is not working properly, some hardwre glitch.
So two additional questions are My laptop is a PIII Compaq E 500 with 384 MB RAM and 18 Gb HD. It has one USB 1.1 slot. I checked the bios settings and cnoot find an option to boot of USB. Is there a way to setup up booting from USB so that I could use an external cd drive. IS there a way to boot a live cd of a floppy - and have the cd on an external drive. thanks ram [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hi > In my search for video tools a friend told me to use dynebolic > gnu/linux- its live, fast and has a lot of video tools. > > It boots up qucikly and works pretty fast even though its on a cd. > > It has an option of nesting the os o the root , > > I wanted to do this since it will be some time since I can actually > get the software on the cd for my mandrake os. > > My question is : is it worth nesting the os on the harddisk > what will be he problems. ? > and what precautions should be taken ? > _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
