Subject: Win2k installation on Lib110
Hi
In would like to install Win2K on
my Lib110, In dont have a woking floppy drive or cd/rom,
I do have a 2.5 ide adapter, I have make 2 partitions
8gb and 3.5gb (with free space in between for hibernation)
I make the first partition bootable and copied the cabs
file (i386) to the second Partition. I know, I cant
run setup to install Win2K, like in Win98.
What software do I need? I remember someone
mentioning a software call "smart drive"??
any ideas???
The idea looks good to me :-)
Have a look here:

for some hints and links.
You can start the installation from DOS, by running D:\I386\WINNT.EXE
Do not forget to first start (indeed!) smartdrv.exe (disk cache) - makes
the difference between 1 hour and 4+ hour installs! (You can find it in
a Windows 98 subdirectory (\Windows\COMMAND\ or maybe \Windows\ itself.)
Good luck,
P.
