<div>Hi,</div>
<div> I have RHEL 3 CD-ROM's. Can I copy the files from the CD to the harddisk and create a structure to install linux ? I will have to copy the structure to the XP partition and boot the CD using a USB drive. If there is blank space on the hardisk then this installation should succeed ?? Can anyone confirm this ?
</div>

<div><pre>C:\REDHAT\
|----> RedHat - a subdirectory of C:\RedHat\, so it'll be C:\RedHat\RedHat
|----> RPMS -- binary packages - important
|----> base -- small filesystem setup archives - important
|----> instimage -- image used for graphical installs
|----> images -- boot and ramdisk images - download to follow this guide
|----> dosutils -- installation utilities for DOS - download to follow this guide
|----> doc -- various FAQs and HOWTOs
|----> misc -- source files, install trees
|----> COPYING -- copyright information
|----> RPM-PGP-KEY -- PGP signature for packages from Red Hat
|----> SRPMS -- Source RPMS for Red Hat distribution (not really needed unless you want to build RPMs)
