Sorry for my silly question, but this is my first experience with Linux (I'm windows man).
I am trying to install e-smith server on a blank DOS formated drive. The manual says that rebooting the PC with the CD will start installation. As there is no option to boot from CD-ROM on that PC (it's old P200MHz) the PC is looking for a floppy (or HD).
I am rebooting with Win95 CD start up disk, which assigns CD-ROM drivers, and i can see the content of the CD, but from there I am stuck. I do not know which file will start installation (under DOS/Windows it is usually setup.exe or install.exe).
I read about booting with boot diskette in the manual, but I am not sure how to create the boot floppy which could trigger the installation of e-smith.
Please help a novice to Linux.
Regards,
Roumen
PS: I have a small network with NT domain server. I have been advised that I can use e-smith on a separate machine as internet/e-mail gateway and firewall router. Do you thing that this will be possible within my networ where i have NT PDC/file and print server and 5-6 win95/98 workstations?
