USB pen drive

[Huub]

Hi,

I have to temporarily install W2kAS for a short project. Since I'm short
on harddiskspace, can I use a 1GB USB pen drive to install it on?

Thanks,

Huub

It's not big enough not to mention your hardware probably doesn't support
booting from a removable device.

How much space does it take then just to install W2kAS for a Kerberos
connectiontest?

Probably two to three gB

OK. Suppose I have a pc able to boot from USB. Would setup recognize a
USB harddisk of say 80GB or does setup only recognize standard IDE drives?

See if your hardware is listed here. If not get in touch with the hardware
manufacturer or check their web site.
