Howto: Create Bootable USB Stick

<< < (2/7) > >>

T_Hobbit:
It works for me. Now, how can I make my USB stick boot with permanent definitions and programs and personal stuff?

jls:
I installed unetbootin on the pendrive, it boots, but then nothing, it stops on the boot screen.

Juanito:
I'm using extlinux.tce to create a bootable usb stick starting from a blank stick formatted ext2 - it works fine with freeware ext2 drivers in windows too.

/mnt/sda1/boot/tinycore.gz
/mnt/sda1/boot/bzImage
/mnt/sda1/boot/extlinux/extlinux.sys
/mnt/sda1/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf


--- Quote ---$ cat /mnt/sda1/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf 

        kernel /boot/bzImage
        append initrd=/boot/tinycore.gz quiet vga=773 noswap laptop tce=sda1 waitusb=5 noscan text

T_Hobbit:
If I create mydata.gz/tclocal/tce directory on my laptop HD and boot from CD I'm able to load my data and my programs.

If I boot from an USB stick made with unetbootin and create mydata.gz/tclocal/tce directory on the stick, after boot the definitions are lost.

How can this be solve so I can boot my USB stick and work directly with my files and programs?

curaga:
Your usb stick might need an additional wait: add "waitusb=5" to your boot arguments, where 5 is the number of seconds to wait for slow usb devices.
