Most likely the bios will only allow booting of of the cd/dvd drive, and will look for a specific pattern or something that can't be replicated on the harddrive. If that's the case, you would either have to change the bios, or burn a dvd with a lilo type program. Which is easier now?

shesh! such anger! sure, someone trying to give away what isn't theirs is not right, but a post filled with obsenities and personal attacks is not the answer. in fact from his post, we can't even be sure that his company holds any copyrights on the images. don't really know how they could. or do they have any regulations in his contract that prohibit the release of infromation for free that otherwise would cost $$$ ?
