While you can boot from the USB Key, install from the usb key is not supported directly under anacoda. What you might need to do is ( if you have a 2.5 gig USB Key ), copy the install media onto the usb key, and then manually mount that under /mnt/sources at the right time. > Has anyone done this, and if so, can you tell me the procedure to make > this work? you need to get the diskboot.img file from the /images directory on CD1 ( or on mirror.centos.org/centos/4/os/<arch>/images/ ) and copy that onto the key ( eg. dd if=diskboot.img of=/dev/sdc ). reboot the machine, select boot from usb in the BIOS. And you are done. - K -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219 at icq
