[Rule-list] Ok,,, but what if you don't have a cdrom

[Arthur Yarwood]

I've just picked up an old Panasonic CF-41 laptop and faced a similar 
problem. I couldn't boot off the cd drive and it had no floppy. The 
only way I got around this was to put the drive in another machine and 
install redhat from there, then pop the drive back in. 

My laptop only has 8 meg ram, so a little more limited than this 
project is aiming for, however I'm sure a lot of your work would still 
be very relevant. :)

My biggest concern with redhat ATM, is with 'updatedb' which runs 
shortly after booting - it just kills the thing, can't do jack until it 
finishes. Thoughts?
