FC installation

[azeem ahmad]

in fact i want to setup a hard disk say hdc which i just put into a computer 
and boot the computer from that  hard disk and start the linux installation, 
the newly installed system will reside on the hard disk say hda of that 
computer. very same way like i put the first installation cd in any 
computer, boot that computer from this cd and start the installation, and 
the newly installed system then resides on the hard disk of that omputer.
mean i dont want a full linux system installed on that hdc instead i want 
that hdc to be bootable like FC3 first installation cd and then to start 
installation from that hdc.
