I continued trying the installation from USB-memory, this time with another memory stick, this time 512 MB. The longer method with syslinux and copying files on stick by hand produced on booting the message:
No operating system found When I did install-mbr, I got MBR Boot failure Next I tried zcatting the boot.img.gz, I worked with the same set of files as on saturday. This worked, boot went OK and I installed successfully. Is it somehow possible to know before trying all methods and different USB memories what way of creating the USB boot media works? Or a simpler and faster way than trying installation to check if the created USB memory is OK? I used the USB memory I tried first, the 256 MB size, two and a half years ago to install this same host. Then the only way I got it to boot was with GRUB. -- Tapio Lehtonen [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.iki.fi/tapio.lehtonen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
