I just got an LS400 with no hard drive (these come with no internal
optical/floppy drive). I have an extra new drive that I'd like to
install. Unfortunately I have no appropriate external floppy or cd-rom
drive. I do have, however, a hard drive enclosure that I've attached
to my Evo running Windows XP. The hard drive's recognized and I can
format it - assign a drive letter of E: or above - and partition it.

Is there a website or faq on how to set up a new hard drive under this
circumstance? I think I can make a small partition to hold the
contents of my Windows 2000 Pro CD if I can somehow make this drive
bootable and able to change drive letters.

Any and all suggestions will be more than appreciated.
