RE: Security on an old machine

["Jones, Steven" <sjones08@eds.com>]

Having done this (floppy install) its a pain to find enough floppies and
time consuming.

removing hd and shoving it in another machine is way quicker, a netboot
install is the other option.

Since it's Debian, you don't need to stick it in a separate machine.
Just get enough floppies and do the install over a network :)

The only way this would be insecure is if someone broke into the
machine you're installing from and you copied over bad files.
