-        The installation system can load drivers from disks, pen drives,
-        or network servers to configure support for new devices. After
-        the installation is complete, remove any driver disks and store
-        them for later use.

-          Driver disk images may be distributed as compressed archives,

-          include the extensions <filename>.zip</filename>, or
-          <filename>.tar.gz</filename>. To extract the contents of a

-        To format a disk or pen drive with an image file, use the

-        enter this command in a terminal window:
