Phoenix Download for Netbook, No DVD drive?

[fiercebadger]

Howdy,

After crashing my Buzz Fly again today and my MSR out of action for the minute, I have decided to get Phoenix. Problem is I have a Netbook with no DVD drive, can it be put onto a USB memory stick and be downloaded that way?

Cheers guys, this should help with the cost of crashing constantly!

Pretty sure you can download it from Phoenix.

If not, create an image of Phoenix, save it to a pen drive. Install Daemon tools (virtual DVD drive) on the Netbook and mount the image.

You can only get updates from the site,
somehow youve got to make a .iso using either poweriso or magiciso chuck it on the usb and as the above post says just mount and install.

If you also have a pc, share the cdrom over the network, this is what i did, i now have phoenix on my Netbook .

if you have another PC, you could run it from that PC's dvd drive. (if you are networked)

Also you can get a external cdrom off fleabay for about 15.

or pull it off the cd onto a usb memory stick...
Which netbook do you have? If it aint got a half descent card in it then youll have bother anyways.

yuo don't need to make an iso file, you cannormally just copy all the files from the cd onto your hard drive or USB pen and run the setup from there.
I have a partition on my hard drive and cpied all thr most important software CDs and DVDs to there so I can rebuild the PC without having to look for all the discs.
