installing linux via network.

[Stephen Dawes]

You can currently do a talking network install of Redhat 7.

Bill has done some great work in getting the install working with Redhat,
and once the install is finished, you have a talking linux box.

I have done at least 6 network installs with Bill's install disk, and must
say that it works quite well.  The only problems that I have had with the
talking installs from Bill, are problems that I created myself.

In short, I recommend giving it a try, especially if you want to have a
network install, and a talking kernel once the install is finish.  The bonus
is, you boot into the install.

Good luck, hope this helps!

  Hi guys.
  I've finally got a distro of linux!.
  I've got zipspeak which is a slightly modified version of slackware 7.1.
  My question is, 1 can I install it with out using loadlin and 2, can I
install it via a network and if so, where can I find the network.dsk file
that setup refers to??
  Thanks for all your help so far guys. Shaun
