Install from harddisk on netwinder OS



Hi folks

Just tried to upgrade my netwinder office server (rack mountable,
*no* disk drive, *no* cdrom support) from redhat to Debian.

I managed to boot the rescue system, hook it up to the network
and copy files to /dev/hda3, from which it would boot nicely - almost.

I downloaded and untared base_2.2.tgz to / dito with modules.tgz and modconf.tgz. Then I copied the "linux" file to /boot.

What happens: After setenv'ing to boot from /dev/hda3 it boots
Debian - and asks me to insert the install floppy disk...

Guess I got the wrong image. But where would I find the correct one?
Or am I missled here completely? It looked quite nice this way...

TIA, Marcel
