Hi,
what exactly does the tohd do?
I'm using DSL-N. My HD is NTFS on SATA. So I understand that tohd would fail. So I cheated by copying everything from my USB disk to the NTFS disk via windows. But that doesn't work. I'm wondering why.
I see a similar question posted on Jan. 15 2007
http://damnsmalllinux.org/cgi-bin....=+tohd=
which is having the same problem, but is un-answered.
Here is the details, FYI,
I think the knoppix/KNOPPIX file is the only one that the boot is looking for. It is there, on my NTFS disk:
$ ls -l knoppix/KNOPPIX
-r-xr-xr-x 1 knoppix knoppix 97063802 Jan 25 16:00 knoppix/KNOPPIX*
My PC is Dell, I enabled directl USB boot. then I boot with
| Code Sample |
fb1280x1024 fromhd=/dev/sda2
|
But it does not work:
| Code Sample |
$ mount | grep /cdrom
/dev/sdb1 on /cdrom type vfat (ro,nodiratime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=cp437,iocharset=iso8859-1)
|
still booted from my USB key.
please help.
thanks
