Re: [LIB] Help on installation
Date: Wed, 27 Nov 2002 08:16:31 + From: Matthew Hanson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [LIB] Help on installation From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm in the process of installing windows 2000 onto my Lib 100. I have my desktop setup to see the Lib harddrive as slave. I partititioned one side of the harddrive to 600mb and placed the entire Windows 2k install files on there. The other side of the partitioned is unpartitioned space. I don't know if this is gonna work, but if someone knows a sure fire way to get this done let me know. I know the i386 directory is the guts of Windows 2k, but I have no clue as to how its suppose to sit on the Libretto harddrive and be automatically detected. Could I just make the Lib HD primary on my desktop and setup Windows 2000 from there? Would that make sense...? I haven't installed Win2K, but I'd guess it'd install like Win9x. After you copy the i386 installation directory to the HDD in the desktop, slap it in the Libretto and boot from a FDD with just the system files. At the C: prompt type 'CD\i386' (without quotes) and hit 'Enter' to get to the 'C:\i386' directory. Then it should just be a matter of typing 'setup' and hitting 'Enter' again. I'm guessing from Neil's post that Win2K has the video drivers for the 100/110 Librettos.
