- Subject: [SM-Discuss] Installation on CD/DVD-less machine
- Date: Wed, 27 Sep 2006 00:09:55 +0200
Hello fellow sourcemages
I'm currently considering a new laptop - a Thinkpad X60. As the
machine does not have a builtin optical drive, the installation of
sourcemage will have to be handled in some other way.
Obviously I could just buy, borrow or steal an external drive and get
it over with, but I would like to know if anybody has a better
suggestion?
Could the sourcemage installer be transfered to a suitably big
usb-storage device and still work?
Could the installer be made to netboot and install that way?
Any other suggestions?
And I really hop I have not overlooked some obvious guide or
documentation that answers this - RTFM + a URL would be totally
useful.
Thanks in advance.
