Hi, I have a 'little' issue with my bootable USB keys... The following used to work (isolinux 3.11-4): Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdg1 * 1 3 23126 6 FAT16 /dev/sdg2 4 1023 7873380 83 Linux mkfs.vfat -n BOOT /dev/sdg1 mkfs.ext2 -m 0 -b 4096 -L DATA /dev/sdg2 syslinux -s /dev/sdg1 cd /media/BOOT cp -rv /mnt/cdrom/isolinux syslinux mv syslinux/isolinux.cfg syslinux/syslinux.cfg rm -f syslinux/isolinux.bin So: /ldlinux.sys /syslinux /syslinux/boot.cat /syslinux/boot.msg /syslinux/general.msg /syslinux/initrd.img /syslinux/memtest /syslinux/options.msg /syslinux/param.msg /syslinux/rescue.msg /syslinux/splash.lss /syslinux/TRANS.TBL /syslinux/vmlinuz /syslinux/syslinux.cfg Configuration: default myks timeout 60 ... label myks kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img ks=hd:sda2:/ks.cfg method=hd:sda2:/centos ... And to be sure: dd if=/usr/lib/syslinux/mbr.bin of=/dev/sdg I remade it to upgrade the OS version (but still (isolinux 3.11-4) and it does not boot anymore... I get to isolinux boot: prompt and it says "could not find kernel image: linux" I tried to put the syslinux.cfg in / and no better... I checked msdos filenames and they seem ok. any idea about what could be wrong? Thx, JD

You don't need it to be in the root of the drive.> /ldlinux.sysno.
