Damn small linux q
I have an onld compaq laptop with no cd drive but i have on of the iomega 250mb zip drives. I was wondering if it is possible to use that to do a clean install of DSL
If not then i will have to try the poormans method Thanks Ben |

if you can boot to the zip disk then you *should* be able to run DSL off of it although i dont know how it will handle being compressed

Zip disks aren't compressed. A Zip disk is just a removable cartridge used in Iomega Zip drives.
