Druid Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 If I am correct the method you are referring to requires two deadmoo installs, one to use to create image from the other. It seems you have a decent amount of hard drive space, I figured out a method of installing the generic iso to like a 20 gb size in vmware, then writing it to a hard drive with dd....not sure if you wanna try that route..?
