Anyone know where I can get this from? Does it include X-Windows? The one
I heard about had all the applications already compiled on the CD-ROM.

The CD comes with a "live" file system, so you can run Linux directly from
the CD with minimal hard disk usage. Using UMSDOS, you can even install
Linux on your DOS drive without repartitioning. Of course, you can also
install Linux in its own partition for improved performance.

buy, you can find a gzip'ed 'ls -laR' of the CD in

1. HELP: Installing Linux from a USB CD-ROM (bootable!)
Linux Users:
I am working on a machine which has no IDE CD-ROM in it, but has a BIOS
which allows you to boot up off a USB CD-ROM. I successfully boot up off the
CD-ROM using Mandrake 8.0, but then it gets to a certain point (after doing
all the hardware indentification and it puts the title "Welcome to
Linux-Mandrake") where it says:
Running install...
Welcome to Linux-Mandrake (8.0) Apr 18 2001 10:16:16
Please wait: Trying to access a CD-ROM disc (drive (none))
((none)).
Retry?
(0) Yes
(1) No
(2) Back
?
What can I do (by putting some command line arguments on the "linux
hda=?????" line)?
Can I custom burn a new CD-ROM with other drivers in the kernel?
By the way, if you do know about how to burn custom installation CD-ROM, I'd
appreciate knowing that, as I would like to add some programs to what
Linux-Mandrake loads into the ramdisk when it boots up in rescue mode. I
would like to add some programs to the /bin it created when it builds the
ramdisk it runs from. I would also like to increase the size of the ramdisk
it creates.
As well, I would like to also have the kernel have some additional drivers
built into it for rescue mode (i.e., 1394 stuff).
What choices do I have to do my install from a USB drive. Now please, dont
tell me to use a different CD-ROM, tell me how I can make what I have work.
