I followed the instructions in README-UsbInstall and when I am booting I get:
Code: Select all
Could not find kernel image: linux
boot:

Thanks!Shador wrote:Ok, it can't find the kernel image to load "linux". Not very surprising as it's looking for the wrong image.
Did you get any errors during installation from install-on-USB.sh? Can you please run ls -lR /media/<YOUR STICK>? Post the output. Also upload the output (RESULTS.txt) of the boot_info_script (root) somewhere. It's in the package boot-info-script.
You must have omitted the R switch here or you used a lower-case r instead which is not the same.Atip wrote: [A-DATA UFD]$ ls -IR

boot packages salixlive
I want just the output of ls -lR <path to your stick>. It's a long list but if you post it in code tags or upload it to some pastebin, it's fine.Atip wrote:Without the -I flag all packages are listed which is quite a long list.
For ./boot:
_dev_sdb.mbr.201202121216 eltorito.img install-on-USB.cmd
_dev_sdb.mbr.201202121216.0810 g2ldr install-on-USB.sh

It's definitely there, but maybe your mirror had not synced yet when you tried as I just added it yesterday:Atip wrote:Sorry, I can't find anywhere a package boot-info-script or locate such a name.

lower-case Lima, that's it. All the time I read it and it shows, somewhat, what you sent as upper-case (ls -lR ), however,Shador wrote:As I said upload it to some pastebin site like pastebin.com .org whatever.
Regarding the directory listing On all linux machines I've tried so far ls -lR (lower-case Lima upper-case Romeo) works as ecpected, i.e. produces a recursive directory lisitng in the long format. Maybe you're usung a shell other than bash, customized simething else or didn't run it on Salix?
But let's just hope everything perfect, right?

We recommend installing it, as it allows the USB to boot more

Are you sure you have the lilo binary/package installed and it's in your PATH? What's the output of "which 'lilo'" on that system?Atip wrote:Lilo is available on my system and is what I use only.
Now try to download the file yourself. Did you manage to? A link to the file would be nice.Atip wrote:I uploaded RESULTS.txt to uploadbud.com
