Topic: How do i install 7b5 without CDROM boot support ?

Hello,

The server wich i use for testing purposes doesn't support booting from a cdrom. With older versions i could install by floppy then cdrom or network, but now, how can i do ?

Using this, I have successfully installed from CD on machines that do not have BIOS support for CD boot.  It might be possible to have SME install GRUB in HDA instead of the boot sector so you wouldn't wipe out BTMGR by installing SME.  Good luck and let us know how it works for you!
