Hi, Is it possible to know (and pass it as a kernel argument) from which device syslinux booted from? My case is: I have a USB stick with a custom linux installation.

Yes, I tried to dd the mbr.bin and use both --install and --stupid parameters. The FAT32 partition is bootable. Here is what I did: $ sudo fdisk /dev/sda -l Disk /dev/sda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders, total 976773168 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal):
