Captain's Log, stardate Tue, 16 Nov 2004 10:47:12 +0000, from the fingers of Glen Gray came the words:
> Of course the other option is to nfs share the dir with teh FC3

> ftp://ftp.esat.net/pub/linux/fedora/3/i386/os/images/boot.iso This

Thanks for the advice Glen,

The first option (mounting the iso in loopback) worked like a charm, it has already be installed. But i will keep your recommendation in mind for future installations :)

Regards,

Ken
