| 274976 | 2004-09-24 09:20:00 | Chill one question to do what you suggested, would you need samba |

| 274977 | 2004-09-24 15:23:00 | beama: Nope - Its part of the Kernel itself (Loopback file-systems) :-) Just give it a shot You may be better off with: mkdir /mnt/loopback mount -t iso9660 -o loop /home/username/debian_ISO.iso /mnt/loopback This way its not sharing your CD-Rom's mountpoint. Chill. |

| 274979 | 2004-09-27 11:54:00 | update kernel is 2.2.20 tried your method chill, my inexperance with linux was glaring so I cheated, mounted the iso #1 in vmware as a cdrom and powered up the virtual pc and it went into the installer which indicated I was about to install kernel 2.2.20 (should have thought of that earlier) thanks for the help Chill I haven't given up on your method yet still trying |
