hi there,
i'm trying to install mandrake 10.0 from an iso image without burning it on a cd.
i tried the hard disk installaton method , by writing the "hd_grub.img" file on a 
floppy using "rawritewin.exe".

the following is the hardware config:

location of the files:
c:/mandrake/mandrake...cd1.iso
c:/mandrake/mandrake...cd2.iso
c:/mandrake/mandrake...cd3.iso

location to install on :
d: or hda5(the extended partition of the same hdd )


In the file copied onto the floppy "menu.lst" i made the following changes using the 
website"http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/hd_grub.cgi"; :

timeout 0
default 0

title Mandrake Install

root (hd0,4)
kernel /c:/mandrake/mandrake...cd1.iso/isolinux/alt0/vmlinuz ramdisk_size=128000 
root=/dev/ram3 acpi=ht vga=788 
automatic=method:disk,partition=hda5,directory=/c:/mandrake/mandrake...cd1.iso
initrd /c:/mandrake/mandrake...cd1.iso/isolinux/alt0/all.rdz


 when i booted off the floppy it gave me the error file not found.
I guess there some problem with the path .
kindly help me out
