I wasn't aware one could install from just the images located somewhere on the drive, and I imagine that the installer is smart enough to mount the ISO on a loop device if presented with an iso, but I never tried that. I did a number of HD and ftp installs though, just not recently. Now, post-install, having the ISOs themselves available somewhere, and loopback mounted, yes of course. That's how I got by without a CDRW and only one available disk in the 9.x days ;) - just loopback mount the other ISOs off of /mnt/cdrom somewhere, and then make urpmi point to those mount points as sources. > e. > > > -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ David E.
