I haven't actually tried this yet but what you describe is my next step. I think you will need to expand the ISO file rather than copy it directly onto the partition though. Then use SmartBootManager to boot from floppy and point to the partition. This is all a really irritating by-product of the assumption that all PCs can now boot from CD.... I was pleasantly surprised to find that the boot floppy for RedHat 8.1, the last distribution I put on a Libby, recognised the USB port on the docking station. SmartBootManager unfortunately doesn't.

I've spent the last 12 hours or so trying to make this install work, but there always seems to be a problem. Right now I've moved on to the idea of using Win2k to copy over the ISO files to a spare partition...if that doesn't work, I'll be forced to yank the HD and hook it up to a desktop PC. It would probably also be easier with the docking station USB, because USB devices would probably work while the PCMCIA slot seems to not. Has anyone else managed to do this install? -- -Rick -- No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
