how? install from LOCAL ftp server?
Hi all,
I have a PC that has a CDROM that appears to read/boot only small ISO's (e.g. MORPHIX-lite, boot.img for Mandrake etc.)
I would like to use boot.img for Mandrake to boot and install from a local FTP server (hosted on my main desktop -- which is running Mandrake 10.1 OE).
Can I simply setup proftp and copy the contents of CD1 to a folder such as:
/home/me/mdk10.1
Then copy the rpm's from the remaining two CD's (which are typically located in main2, main3 folders in the CD's) into:
/home/me/mdk10.1/media/main
Would the above approach work?
-Thas
PS: I would create a boot CD using boot.img which is found in CD1 indicated above.
