[Klug-general] Booting Options

[rich-ayres at tiscali.co.uk]

Hi all its me again Probably bothering youwith Trivia but.....
 I have been Playing with the old laptop that Nathan kindly donated to 
me, and, while I have made some progress in understanding, I have two 
problems which I cannot seem to find the answer to on Web Sites. 
Given that the Laptop will boot from Hard disc or floppy and does not 
have the option of Cd boot up or USB connections is it possible :
1) to divert the boot process to a Cd at GRUB stage or is it already 
committed to load from hard drive?
2)Can I boot from the current OS (DSL) , mount CDrom do an install 
from a live disc or iso image of the required system?  
 Regards R.
