Installing from a hard drive

[Albert Graham]

Timothy,

If you mount the ISO using -o loop and copy the "install.img" from the 
images directory and copy it to the same location as the actual ISO you 
are using (installing from), then try again.

What I don't understand is why Anaconda simply cannot mount the ISO and 
get the "install.img" itself, having said this, it is documented at least.

Albert.
