-   Hi,

Is it possible to install mandrake linux 8.1 over a network with the cd in the server's tray and the install taking place on the client's machine ? If so how do I do it ?

Thanks,

Joel

-   Setup an FTP server on the network machine, and then create a 'network.img' boot
disk, and direct it to the FTP server.

-   Use the rawrite program if you are on a windows box (it's in the dosutils folder on the FTP site) and use the 'network.img' file from the 'images' directory.
