With SLES10, you can actually insert the media into a PC and boot from it. It should bring up the rescue system. From there, you can mount the DVD, configure the NIC, and start the NFS server to act as an installation server for your mainframe. This also would act as a good test of the burning process. ;) Mark Post ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
