Dear Rohit,
I have done many such installations ( I was forced ..)
(Necessity is the MOTHER of INVENTION they say ....)
Infact I always prefer HDD installation cause they are much faster and don't require Cd changing also
U need to create a the ISO images of the Cd's and place them in one partition.( u can use a seperate directory too....)
Type may be FAT or EXT ( avoid NTFS) U must now the partition naming convention eg /dev/hdc1 ,/dev/hda5 ...
Since U have opted the HDD installation I assume U know the way to get there...
Regarding making the ISO....
U can use X-Cdroast if u know and are comfortable.. If u don't have a Gnu/Linux machine up.. Then try Knpoppix and U can find X-cdroast in it..
if U prefer command line: issue this command in the directory U want the image /dev/cdrom refers to Ur cdrom device
dd if=/dev/cdrom of=FC_Disk_1.iso
Note the of==output file, and U can give any name U want above is just a example (Please Choose Different Name for each Cd.. I know U know that ....Just Kidding )
Regarding Add -Remove Package..
It automatically check for CD-Rom for Disks and not where U installed from...
OF-Course Unless U tweak it to do so ??
Now Once U have iso
What are U waiting for then.......
Start the installation........
Happy GNU-ing.............
Do tell me Whether I was of any help or not ....
Regards,
Shailesh
