I have read that it's possible to install off the serial port, by passing the standard serial port options to the kernel(there are serial port HOWTOs which describe this). But you need a way to get that info to the kernel which means having a head on the system if only for a few minutes. Otherwise you may be able to make a custom bootdisk(not sure how) which uses the serial console by default. or if you meant can you install it, and run it headless, that of course is easy, and is a common configuration of linux/unix no special howto required, just unplug the mouse/keyboard/monitor. never tried installing a system w/o a video card at all though if that's what your attempting. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
