Yes, I think you could use the RH 5.2 disk. All the boot disk does is
provide a limited kernel which allows you to access the CD-ROM. I have
never used this method, but will try it the next time I do an install.


You can also boot with a DOS system disk containing the CD-ROM drivers
then switch to the CD-ROM and complete the install. I have used this on
several installations, and it works fine.
