Using the installator ...
With GeeXboX 0.90-4, you're now able to quickly and easily install the system on any IDE hard disk or USB keys (check that your motherboard's BIOS support boot from USB-HDD). You can install GeeXboX on a new disk or on an empty partition from your current disk. All you need is a partition of at least 8 MB of disk storage (16 MB will be nice, so that you can add more codecs and backgrounds). Plesa note that you MUST use a primary partition (not logical) of less than 1 GB.
Installation is not quite difficult. You can either do it from an existing GNU/Linux system or directly when booting the GeeXboX CDROM. At the IsoLinux prompt "boot:" (just before loading GeeXboX), just hit a key and type install. The GeeXboX will now load on a menu for HDD install.
Just follow the instructions and choose the hard disk on which you want GeeXboX to be installed. Disks are named with Linux systems notation (hda, hdb, hdc, hdd). The 'a' letter stands for the master IDE 0 device, 'b' for the slave IDE 0 device ('c' and 'd' are the same but for IDE 1 channel). When done, you'll get a cfdisk screen which will let you partitionnize your disk. Use the arrows to go to some partition representing Free Space and hit the New button. Then, choose the Type 06 (FAT16) with the provided menu. Finish with Write and the Finish.
Confirm the partition where you want the system to be install and format it. Then, the installator ask you whether you want or not for a bootloader to be installed. A bootloader is a software that let you boot from a partition. If the hard disk is designed to be used with GeeXboX only (like USB keys or old small hard disks), say Yes to install the SysLinux bootloader. In other case, (it suppose that you already got an operating system), you can use your current bootloader (like GRUB or LILO for Linux or Windows 2k/XP boot manager) to add GeeXboX to your actual multiboot menu. When done, you might be able to boot GeeXboX from hard disk as any other system in a few times.
If you really like GeeXboX and uses it frequently, it could be a really good idea to install it on a hard disk. Indeed, the system can be seen a new drive on Windows or Linux and so, it can be easily modify to fit your needs (changing MPlayer's configuration file, supported remote, network configuration ...) without having to regenerate the ISO and burn a CD.
