well, as Linux-VServer does not do system emulation (i.e. you won't get a virtual CD drive and such), just system (and resource) isolation, you basically have to solve the problem: "How do I install FC4 from a bunch of CDs into a directory?" and the solutions could be: - use rpm with the --root= option to get the packages installed into a dir - use UML or QEMU or some full system emulator to install the CDs in a virtual machine and copy the resulting installing into a directory - adjust/adapt (or just trick) the CD installer into isntalling FC4 on a separate dir/partition - setup a repository (apt-rpm, yum) to install from and use the util-vserver tools to install a guest from scratch (which is the preferred way) HTH, Herbert > _______________________________________________ > Vserver mailing list > [email protected] > http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver _______________________________________________ Vserver mailing list [email protected] http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
