Scott Surovich created a 3i boot from disk how to. This document covers how to get the 3i USB memory stick image to a hard drive and it boots from the HD. It still needs the memory stick for ONE check the boot does for the USB Boot partition - but the rest is all HD loaded. This allows servers that DO NOT boot from USB devices to use the 3i Beta. He hopes to get that check pulled so you can boot 100% from a HD.
