When the install asks you for the location, answer the ip and the path to those directories. Last night I've installed fedora in my home from the three loopback mounted isos into my work's http server (same as ftp). Done smoothly. -- Fabian Arias [email protected] http://www.dewback.cl/ -- fedora-test-list mailing list [email protected] http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
