there is a drawback when doing this doc... if the admin is know nothing
about the differences between i386, i586 or i686 precompiled kernels since
the orignal hardware is pentium 166... putting the harddisk on the latest
pentium machine and the installer used the higher precompiled kernel for
that processor to take advantage of it and putting it back to pentium 166,
the results will be kernel panic or hangup...

a while ago i was thinking why he wanted for a keyboardless and monitorless
installation and make his life complicated while he can easily put a
temporary keyboard and monitor just to make his life easy :-> or maybe just
for a curiosity sake he wanted to learn how to install linux under
keyboardless and monitorless environment ;->

fooler.
