Re: [Cooker] HD ISO install
On Friday 20 April 2001 18:35, Guillaume Cottenceau Please note that this feature has an important limitation: it can install only from the first ISO. Packages from any subsequent ISO's will not be available during install. This feature is provided with Linux-Mandrake since version 7.2. That's a really nice feature and all but I had the unhappy privilidge of finding out that it will still list packages from the second CD in the package choosing screen. It will let you select them but when you go to install it will get to those packages and it will say something like "error installing package -- [continue] [ignore]" it would be really nice if it would let you either a) use the second CD or b) not show the packages it can't install

I have iso of CD1 and CD2 of mandrake 8 final. This files are at windows partition and I want to install packages of MDK8 from this two ISO's. I think Mandrake Install don't detect the two ISOS's, it's right? If is right it's is a good feature to add. Thanks, Marcio

If you do that i would mv the images to the root directory. Makes it much easier to find them.

Our installer can install directly from an ISO, may it be on a Linux, Windows, or Reiserfs partition. Please use floppy boot image in "/images/hd.img" and follow instructions on-screen.
