@mimosa,
Syslinux is not correctly "installed" (ldlinux.sys is there, but I'm not sure your VBR is pointing to the correct sector location; and syslinux.cfg is not recognized in the expected paths). Are you sure you used LiveClone?
Also, it seems you used FAT16 for that partition. Please use FAT32 for that partition size.
Anyway, here are some manual steps (and they
will delete the current info in your USB device).
1_ Boot with your Salix LIVE system (the one you said it is correctly working).
2_ Start Gparted.
3_ Select the appropriate (USB) HDD.
BEWARE: triple check that you are really selecting the correct (USB) HDD, where you are going to re-install Salix and that no data in that specific (USB) HDD is important (or that you already have a backup of such data).
4_ Once the correct (USB) HDD was selected, go to "
Device" menu and "
Create a new partition table". The "msdos" type should be the adequate one. Did I mention you should be sure about which (USB) HDD you selected before doing this?
5_ Still in Gparted, create a new
FAT32 partition. Apply (please don't skip this “apply” step).
6_ Right click on the new partition just created and select “
Format → FAT32”. Apply (please don't skip this “apply” step).
7_ Right click on the new partition just created and select “
flags → boot”.
8_ Optionally, right click on the new partition just created and select “
label” - > add a new relevant label. Apply (please don't skip this “apply” step).
9_ Right click on the new partition just created and select “Mount”. You can exit Gparted now.
10_ Copy the content of the Salix CD (or the content of the ISO image) onto the new partition of the USB device.
11_ If your new partition in the USB device is “sdb1”; AND
11.A_ you have syslinux version < 4.00, then run:
syslinux -f /dev/sdb1
11.B_ you have syslinux >= 4.00, then run:
syslinux -if /dev/sdb1
12_ If you received any error messages (like for example regarding mounted or unmounted fs), please report back.
13_ If all the steps were performed correctly and no error messages were received, unmount “sdb1”, "safely disconnect" it, log out from Salix, re-connect the USB device and reboot into it.
14_ Please report back.
EDIT: I forgot!!! Since this is a manual copy, you need to create the syslinux.cfg too. In your next post, ask for more info about it if you need it.
EDIT2: Edited very important typos. Sorry
