Contains the netboot debian-installer using a USB memory stick.
This wonderfull but I do not know how to use it.
The machine I want to put it on is an AMD64 Asus K8 with a
portion of Gentoo on the /dev/hda (not yet fully installed) and
of course I left enough room on /dev/hda1 to include both the
Gentoo and the Debian AMD64 kernels in the /boot partition.
However, as I said the Gentoo is only partially installed and at
this point, may never get installed (too many frustrations).
My second hard drive is a WD 120 Gig with nothing on it, and
since the Gentoo is seeing the internet I figured I might use it
to get the 64 bit machine into action and then at some time off
in the future get back to the Gentoo install.
I need assistance in the following areas:
1. Which files do I need from the
http://amd64.debian.net/debian-installer/daily/netboot/
which contains the netboot debian-installer using a USB memory
stick.
2. How do I get the above files loaded into the 64 bit machine?
As I said, the Gentoo is partially loaded and I can see the net
via RoadRunner cable but have not been able to locate the usb
connection to download the memory stick.
Thanks for any assistance.
