I have an old laptop that my last install had involved using floppy images because the laptop is so old (*creak*) that it doesn't have a BIOS option capable of booting from the CDROM. What I was wondering if there was any option in lilo or another boot loader that could include a PC driver for a standard CDROM (hdc) that would allow me to boot from it as a boot option directly from the boot prompt? Reason being is I want to try upgrading it to 9.1 -- which, primitively enough, still requires booting from a CDROM or floppy to initiate. It really would be nice if SuSE had an update option that could either do an update from a currently running system (followed by a reboot), or could start the reboot kernel directly from the running system. I want to config the computer for a remote audio device, possibly...it might have the horse power for that....:-) Either that or as a "dumb terminal" or internet browser-only system. Thanks for any pointers on the CDBOOT... -linda
