How to install Feisty Fawn from an old Live-CD

Use gparted to create a new partition or format an old one.

Open a terminal, and do “sudo -i” to get a superuser shell.

Get and install a current debootstrap package.

Scrap that. A couple frustrated hours later I decided it’s not going to be possible in any meaningful way and got a blank CD from my neighbor. Crap! :-(

Now I think I know how one could do it, but I havn’t tried:

1. install old version of ubuntu
2. get the netboot linux kernel and initrd
3. use grub to boot the netboot image
