I'm downloading the DVD-ISO and am going to copy its contents into an empty partition. I plan to add a line to the boot loader pointing to that partition.
1. I have two paths to vmlinuz in the isolinux directory, alt0 or alt1. Does anyone know which I should point to, or how to determine the correct one? 2. When I tried to do this using a floppy with a grub image, I kept getting an error showing file not found. It was also showing Filesystem type ext2fs partition type 0x83. But I have, according to MCC, Journalised filesystem ext3 (0x483). Do I need to reformat in ext2fs for the installation, or should the install kernel support the ext3 partition? Couple of reasons behind all this -- CD burner not working in linux, and I have maybe just enough room on the old MS partition (burner works under their windowing OS) for 1 CD-ROM ISO at a time. Not worth fixing CD burner if the new install will do it for me, and certainly not worth rebooting six times and twiddling my thumbs while the CD burns. Thanks, Fred Now if I could just remember why I made a 14 gig root partition last time. 121 megs used. Hmmmm.....
