Hi, I'm trying to prepare a USB stick with Linux and grub to boot from the USB stick.
On the installation machine the USB stick is /dev/sda, so I use the grub commands root (hd1,0) setup (hd1) Output: Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time. GNU GRUB version 0.94 (640K lower / 3072K upper memory) [ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists the possible completions of a device/filename. ] grub> root (hd1,0) Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83 grub> setup (hd1) Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes Checking if "/boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes Checking if "/boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5" exists... yes Running "embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd1)"... 15 sectors are embedded. succeeded Running "install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd1) (hd1)1+15 p (hd1,0)/boot/grub/stage2 /boot/grub/menu.lst"... succeeded Done. But when booting a PC with that stick it just prints ...stage2... and then directly starts the boot block of the built in hard disk instead of the USB stick. Can you give me any hint? regards Hadmut _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
