similar to: Bootable 5.4 USB key...

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

Hi all, I'm running a pretty updated CentOS4 x86_64 server (Still on kernel 2.6.9-42.0.2, but appart from that fully up to date against the official repos) with a USB-disk attached (the USB-disk is a 750G Seagate disk in a Seagate enclosure) over a USB hub. I've noticed several times that after longish periods of activity, the disk drops out (log from last time, below). In this case,

Hi list, I'm having one of those 'I'm stupid' -problems with LVM on CentOS 5.2. I've been working with traditional partitions until now, but I've finally been sold on the theoretical benefits of using LVM, but for now I only have a huge pile of broken filesystems to show for my efforts. My scenario; I attach a disk, either over USB or iSCSI. I create a PV on this

Hi Folks, When I boot ISOLinux, the locally attached disk is visible but the PATA 40 Gig in a USB attached enclosure is not. The locally attached disk has no bearing on what I am doing and to avoid confusion will not be mentioned again. Everything is happening on the 40 Gig. Let me explain. The goal is: Copy an installation iso to the disk, boot the disk and install it on that disk. I have

Hi all, I used a kickstart script to setup a new machine of mine with RAID 1 (I couldn't get anaconda to create matching partition schemes). So I've now got /dev/sdg1 and /dev/sdh1 as 'bios_grub' (/dev/sd{a-f} are a separate array). 0 root at an-nas02:~# parted /dev/sdg print free Model: ATA ST3000NC000 (scsi) Disk /dev/sdg: 3001GB Sector size (logical/physical):

hi ya syslinuxerz - i've been slowly working on a making a custom bootable standalone usb-stick with X11 and kde - it's basically builds itself off of a slackware-10.1 server - create a custom initrd.gz ( /dev/ram0 ) http://linux-boot.net/Bootable/InitRD/ - create a custom rootfs.gz ( /dev/loop0 ) http://linux-boot.net/Bootable/RootFS/ - create X11 and kde loopfiles

Hi, I am creating CentOS install usb keys and, apart from a few problems, it mostly works... 1. OT: My server HP does not seem to want to boot on it if I set the write protection on. 2. Anaconda tries to fetch the ks.cfg too early... It detects sda, then detects the RAID adapter, then re-detects sda with a "waiting for device to settle before scanning". Anaconda tries to access

Hi folks, Im trying to get a multi-card reader on centos (SD, MMC, and so, 4 card slots) and i have read (http://www.cs.sfu.ca/~ggbaker/personal/cf-linux) that CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN should be enabled on kernel (=Y) but current 34.0.2 doesn't have it enabled by default, is there any particular reason to not be enabled? By the other hand i've also tweak the /etc/grub.conf file to boot the

I have written a bash script (see below) to generate bootable SD-USB images using syslinux as booter. The script works OK with versions 3.63 and 3.71, but I get a null pointer error executing /tmp/$SYSLINUX/linux/syslinux -sf -o 16384 SD.img in 3.72. If you execute $ sudo sh SDformat.sh sys then you can test the image easily with qemu $ qemu -hda SD.img ++++++ SDformat.sh

Ok, there's been discussion, including, I think, on the wiki web page, that syslinux is not correct. At any rate, after enough experimentation, I have a working install on a USB key. The procedure is: Using fdisk, partition your key: one partition, VFAT (type b, and toggle the bootable flag), about 9M or 10M, and a second partition big enough to hold a DVD. That should be type 83 (Linux

Hi, i'm trying to create an ubuntu live-pendrive using this tutorial http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/02/12/usb-ubuntu-tutorial-for-linux-users/ I have a 2GB USB Pendrive. When I insert the pendrive, /var/log/messages says: kernel: usb 5-5: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 35 kernel: usb 5-5: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice kernel: scsi13 : SCSI emulation for USB

I'm having problems installing CentOS via a USB drive. First, I tried using Unetbootin, but with no avail. The 8MB netinstall doesn't work, and the big DVD image doesn't work either. http://lubi.sourceforge.net/unetbootin.html Then I tried this http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-centos-5-live-install-via-windows/ with a CentOS DVD file, and that did not work (just hangs). I tried

Hello there, since I installed CentOS6 few months ago (kept up-to-date using yum), I'm facing very poor performances when writing to USB pendrives. The hardware: a Dell Latitude E6500 laptop (Intel Core Duo P8600 @2.40Ghz), 4Go RAM + 4Go swap, several USB2 pendrives of various brands (less than old, all formatted as vfat). When I perform a copy (with cp or midnight commander, copying big
