Someone may ask similar questions before. However, even I have tried to search through the whole mailing list on this, I still can't solve my problem.... Here is my story :- 1) Config. Libretto 50ct 32MB ram 6.4GB IBM harddisk PCMCIA floppy Panasonic PCMCIA CDROM EagleTec PCMCIA 10/100Mb ethernet card 2) OS and partition info. Partition 1 - 1.5Gb FAT32 with WIN95 installed Partition 2 - 1.5Gb FAT16 with RH 7.2 files (2CD) Partition 3 - 3Gb not used yet 3) Aim To install RH 7.2 to Partition 3 and config WIN95 / RH7.2 dual boot system. My fail experience...... :< 1) Boot up Libretto with DOS and PCMCIA cdrom support, run autoboot.bat from cdrom. RESULT : RH 7.2 can't recognize my CDROM and ask me for the driver (I have no linux driver for CDDROM) 2) Copy all RH 7.2 files to partition 2 (FAT16) by WIN95 and boot up with DOS. Run autoboot.bat from partition2. RESULT : I can select installation from HD and either /dev/hda1 /dev/hda5 can be chosen as RH image drive, but RH can't find my RH files no matter what directory I input!!! Actually, I copy the complete directory structure from RH CDs to root of partition 2, that's mean dir RedHat is located at the root of partition 2, so nothing I need to input at directory field, Right? 3) Mount RH CDs to my desktop RH 6.2 and setup it accessible from FTP. Then, run autoboot.bat again and select FTP installation with my PCMCIA ethernet card plug in Libretto. RESULT : Able to connect to FTP and download some files, but the installation process stop after a while due to some what "file extraction error!!" WWWWOOOOOOO!!!! I tried these all out last night and able to get 2 hrs sleep only!!! Please help!!! Alan from Hong Kong _________________________________________________________ 爭氣(容祖兒)，失戀王(陳小春)，歲月的童話(羅嘉良)...
