Install Fiesty from floppy?


I have a laptop with a fast internet connection and a floppy drive. No CD-ROM drive. Is there some way that I can install Feisty?

At this point in time there is no way to install Ubuntu from floppy drives. There is a way to install it through a PXE boot.

Here is the link to the Ubuntu Wiki:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsServe...C%28network%29

It is possible though to install Debian through a floppy drive if you would like to go that route.
