According to the README (http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/tools/win32-loader/stable/win32-loader.txt) it downloads the Debian kernel and installer, then modifies the Windows bootloader to boot off the Debian kernel (optionally). Then you run a standard Debian network install, just as if you booted off optical media.q -- Carl Fink nitpick...@nitpicking.com Read my blog at blog.nitpicking.com. Reviews! Observations!
