Installing Fedora on a USB connected Harddrive.

[Jim]

Fedora 17 new install on a USB connected hard drive.

I have Dell Dimension 2400 with WindowsXP installed, But !! I can't get 
this Dell to Boot off a CDROM.
by even setting up BIOS to boot off CDROM.

Yes the CD is a Bootable CD.  If you read the CD from within WindowsXP 
it will read the the files on the CD.

I was thinking about taking hard drive out the Dell and USB connect the 
hard drive to another Computer and do a resize of WindowsXP and install 
Fedora on hard drive and setting up the hard drive as a Boot drive , 
then put it back into the Dell 2400.

The Dell hard drive is a IDE drive and My computer is SATA so I can't 
put the Dell hard drive in my PC.

Will it Work ????
