Boot from floppy + USB

[quellen]

with X/GUI, Core Plus works. but I can't do the full installation: when I select USB-HDD, the label "Existing Partitions" is shadow and  I can't select it. why? i dont't want to install it in whole disk!



my hard disk (10GB) has this partitions:

sda1: DSL (EXT2) 2GB
sda2: Windows 2000 (FAT32) 3GB
sda3: Linux Swap 270MB

You can only select a partition in Frugal Mode install

So select  Frugal > Existing Partition > desired partition > forward arrow (next)

thanks, but i don't like the frugal installation . i want a full installation.

[coreplayer2]

Define full installation please?

I see Frugal as a Full installation.   If you're talking about scatter mode install, I don't believe that is supported, certainly scatter mode install is discouraged.


USB-HDD & USB-ZIP  is relative to BIOS compatibility (These modes use whole disk only).  I'm thinking PC's with a BIOS which needs USB-HDD and USB-ZIP support are almost extinct

That said, I think maybe there is some confusion over Full install??

I mean something like DSL, with all directories: /etc /usr /var /proc ecc...

Core has all these directories too.
They are in RAM just like they are in DSL.

in DSL  the directories are in hard disk, not in RAM.

Not in the DSL I have used.
