You need a floppy with "kernel level autoconfiguration" active. When kernel wake up, it ask on the net it's ip/netmask to a DHCP server. Then it mount / via NFS After that, you can run any script to install debian on your HD (I have done a script that fdisk/mkfs/tar x debian.tgz automaticaly) good luck! -- Paolo Pedaletti, Como, ITALYa www.fastflow.it/~paolop paolop...matapp.unimib.it -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
