Im installing on a machine that doesnt recognise anything except its PCMCIA cdrom, and ubuntu wont boot from this. I copied the alternate cd to the windows install, and setup grub for DOS to allow booting from the local hard-disk.

Once i eventually got this working, and got the amchine booted i went through the install procedure with the ALT cd in a usb drive. Everything went smoothly.

however towards the end of the install, i was distracted and didnt choose any of the options from tasksel.

Is there a way to bring this tasksel back up with the options it had on it?

On another note, is there a way to get the Moblin-Remix version booting the same way (i tried but the initrd and vmlinuz files dont seem to want to work from the local disk)
