TS on a floppy?

[CptPron]

I'm interested in setting up teamspeak on a computer without a hard drive or cd-rom drive. I would put it on a disk with a stand alone linux system ideally. The only problem is, I don't even know where to begin, I don't have any experience with linux either soooo.... if anyone could give me a how-to or if they did this could give me a link to it somehow... (eg. rapidshare, e-mail attachments, whatever.) Thanks a ton for anyone that can help me!

Nobody has done this before? I really could use some help here... Thanks!

well for one, the program files themselves aren't likely to fit on a floppy

if there is no hard drive then there is no OS so where are the system drivers going to come from? internet connectivity?

perhaps you are thinking about compiling your own live cd... but then you would need a cd rom. unless you have a bios that can boot directly from a flash drive, in which case you would need a distribution that would fit on one of those, plus the ts files.

i dont see this working at all. you need a functional server to run ts.

thanks I guess.. I wasn't sure it would work to start with so thanks.

You could do a diskless boot, but your NIC would have to support PXE-boot or etherboot, and you would need a boot server with disks - maybe a laptop or your personal PC could do that job. However, you would need a lot of memory, and this solution would overcomplicate everything. To be honest - get a disk drive. ;)
