I've had some indication of success with a "hard drive" install from the
rescue CD using a portable hard drive but now I have to "Select driver
disk image?"
I had F-7-i386-DVD.iso on the portable drive and did:
mount F-7-i386-DVD.iso /media/PLEOMAX/f7-fs -t iso9660 -o loop
and then copied the resulting set of files to another directory on the
portable drive and am attempting to do an install from that.
If I select the Fedora directory I get a long list of rpm's ...
Anyway, I am stuck, not knowing what to do at this point. I either
don't have the "driver disk image" file or don't know what to use if I
do have it. I have run the sha1sums on the iso files and they all look
good but I seem to be stymied at every turn.
I guess I could buy a DVD drive that will write a DVD on this FC-6 box
but even then I have little confidence in that working any better than
one "burnt" on the Mac.
None of this seems to make any sense?
Any thoughts or comments appreciated.
