Re: Why doesn't 2.2r3 CD boot on Toshiba 4080 XCDT ...

[Adam Jacob Muller <AdamJacobMuller@home.com>]

if you have a cdr.... burn the boot and root images to seperate cd's

and boot to them. then using the data cd install....
gets you around the 1.44mb limitation and lets you install using only
the cdrom
