Install OS on new hard drive without media slice
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.
