I have looked until it hurts! Can someone point me in the right direction for installing from a hard drive???

I've googled every possible (that I can think of) group of words to find a tut on this... as you can tell, I've had no luck! ](*,)

What is on the hard drive? Is it an iso download on windows or a previous install?

I have the iso's on my ubuntu machine. I aim to use two drives in another older box (much older). One of the drives will hold the iso's (hdb) and will install onto hda.

I tried to wrap my head around doing a netboot installation, but it didn't sink in. Not to mention it seemed far more complicated than it should be.

Got it after a lengthy sleep. Used the Debian tftp for netbooting.
