You could use rock linux to install just over the net. All u need is an existing network connection and a linux system, and u have both :). try www.rocklinux.org for more details.

Shipping, costs, and so on. I have free 24/7 net connectionm :-D Well not 'free', but it's on anyway.
Which usually asks for floppies. This box has nothing but hard drives and a NIC.
that said, I've known the *BSD installs to be great for installing over the net...it makes no diff where you install from, just 1 or 2 steps to configure network before install.
... Thanks, but right now I want Linux.

Okay, how would I install Linux (let's say Debian) on a PC with just a network connection? There is another version of Linux sitting there and I intend to dual-boot.
