Then put either the netinst.iso or the full CD1 binary iso on the USB-stick. If ever you want to install from CD, just take the stick to a computer with a burner and burn that ISO image. I also include all my essential user and system data on my 4 GB USB stick so that it, in combination with an internet connection, provides everything I need for a full bare-metal-recovery. For completeness, I also put on a grml.iso. Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
