HD Install :: HD frugal 3.4



Thanks for your help - sorry I wasn't clear enough - unlike you, I am only a superficial user.

Let me try again.

My previous frugal DSL 3.3 was (booted via GRUB) on /dev/hda3, amd I want to have the new one there.

I booted Linux, and did

mount -t vfat /dev/hdb7  /mnt/eye/

cd /tmp

mount -t iso9660 -o loop /mnt/eye/Sources/MiscSors/dsl-3.4-initrd.iso  ./

Then /tmp contained a directory called  boot  , and that contained one called  isolinux .

And that in turn contained several files, as below. I think you can figure out what is where.

So now how do I get a GRUB frugal install to /dev/hda3 ?
Thanks much,  Sheldon.

If you are still booting off hda3's grub, all you have to do is edit your menu.lst as mikshaw suggested.
