[olug] Tom's Root Boot Disk and installing from a cd

[Eric Penne]

He can't boot from CD for under $61.

Somebody help me out here.

2 disks are needed:

Root and Rescue. (I think).

>From there you can get the rest of the data from the CD.  The disks are
needed for the initial boot up and start of installation then the rest of
the stuff is pulled from network/CD.
