Description Eric Whiting 2005-08-30 18:50:22 UTC
I rsync'd the 10.0B3 install tree to /dev/hda3.
I booted 10.0B3 disk 1 and selected manual install and install from hard disk (hda3)

The partitioning suggestion is to format hda3. That is wrong... It should not
format the hard disk that it is reading the packages from.

Installation from hard disk is not officallly supported.
