Re: net install using USB flash disc



It should be - I have the USB boot option in my BIOS (it's a fairly new
notebook - HP nx6125).  I have the option of a boot menu, which lets me
select hard disc, optical drive or USB disc.  If the USB drive is not
plugged in, it doesn't show on that menu, so I know the BIOS can see it.

I guess I'll have to ask IT to install a CD-ROM for me (could take
days).

Thanks
Hans
