Install from two different sources????

Postby stayupthetree » Fri Oct 15, 2010 9:11 pm

I was wondering if it is possible to install from 2 different sources.....issue is this: I have a semisortabutnotreally working Ide DVD drive and a new sata drive installed. Well the motherboard won't let me boot from the sata drive...I can however make it to the repository screen using the semisortabutnotreally working ide drive before it craps out. Any way to start with the one and finish with the other????

No, you must install from CD/DVD. That is the only supported way to install Amahi

I actually just figured it out. I was trying to install from two different DVD drives. When you get to the screen asking about checking the media remove the DVD from the drive that you don't want to install from and place in the drive you want to install from because by that point the system is recognizing the sata drive.
