i am not very sure this one can be done.
i have a old computer at home without hardisk. it is quite old
computer and only support 2GB hardisk
since 2GB hardisk is quite rare this day. I am planning to install
debian
into the 2GB pendrive (i know this one can be done).
But the computer is quite old. No USB support not to mention BOOT
FROM USB feature.
i want to attach the kingston pendrive to the motherboard IDE using
USB-to-IDE cable.
will this kind of hardware configuration supported by debian?
Even though the BIOS may not recognize drives over 2 gig - debian
will... It doesn't use the BIOS for working with the drive once it
gets going.
Just make sure your boot loader is at the start of the drive (the
normal configuration).
