Is it ok if I install Fedora Core 5 using my computer on my friend's hard disk drive? Would my friend be able to use the OS once, he plugs it back to his system?
My computer configuration is completely different than his
i've done this several times ... cuz some of my friends dont have cdroms or for packages... it is very much possible. U gotta install grub and configure other settings by hand ... best way is to chroot into the installed system and do all the configuration ...
If u have tried installing a gentoo system from stage 1 or 2 ... u'll be pretty comfortable with the procedure..
u might have to run the first boot service in fedora... to do that u'll haveto go through the script and find out which file firstboot checks and delete it!
display can be configured once in runlevel 3 by system-config-display... if that doesnt work then move ur old xorg.conf and try with an empty one.
