markwolfe Veteran Posted March 8, 2004 Veteran Share Posted March 8, 2004 If you are looking to install them, you can just save them to a directory on a FAT partition... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordHatrus Posted March 8, 2004 Share Posted March 8, 2004 Right, I'm with Jensen on this one, you can just leave them in a linux-readable FileSystem, and install from there. Although, if you don't / can't do that, the answer is im 99% sure, yes, you can burn to 3 DVDs. We'd just have to kill you for the waste of media, though :rolleyes: If you can't do the hard disk way, then if you have two comps and a CD-RW, that would be a little less wasteful, wouldn't it? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markwolfe Veteran Posted March 8, 2004 Veteran Share Posted March 8, 2004 If you wanted to burn them to one DVD, that should be possible.... I have never tried it, but you shoudl be able to point the install to /dev/hdc1... maybe... It works with ext3 and with FAT partitions, it might work with the cd/dvd... possibly... :unsure: (borrow some blanks from a friend!) :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
