[CentOS] more: Have install diskette for 3.0, but can't find the .img for 4.0
I have found something called: diskboot.img at: http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/centos/4/os/i386/images/ But it is 6Mb large (6411Kb) instead of 1411Kb And the rawreadwrirewin program gets an error on it when run on NT. On Win2000, it makes a diskette that fails to boot.. So really, HELP!!!! I 'just' discovered that my old bootable diskette is for Centos 3.0, and my other CDs are Centos 3.3. =============================================================== OK. I am in an emergency crunch. I need that 4.0 install diskette. Like 2 hours ago! Where is it???????? I don't want to have to install 3.0 on this box. Illegitimi non Carborundum
