Hi All,

I'd like to be able to SYS a hard drive from Linux so that I can copy some DOS files to that drive and start my install directly from the hard drive.

I suppose there may be some different ways to do this.....

1. Edit the boot sector/partition table
2. Image a good/working disk and install the image onto the desired drive

...but these seem a little over complicated for what I want to acheive and I'm not sure that I fully understand what's required at this point anyway.

Does anyone have any experience of having done this? I know it's a strange one but it's to ease windows deployment woes and get people used to using Linux before we go down the whole Linux migration route.

Any help appreciated.
