Hi

if your HD is large enough, it should work if you copy the contents of the CD via net or seriell or laplink cable from a PC to the Amiga (if the PC is able to read the CD errorfree, don't know if it is formated in enhanced RockRidge format that isn't readable completely by a PC -- the Amiga-specific attributes like protection bits and filecomments wouldn't be recognized).
Then you make an assign to this directory named equal to the CD and start the installation.
