Hi all!
I've tried to install dsl on a DiskOnkey 128Mb usb pendrive, but after many tries I must admit I've failed to do so.
Here is how I proceeded (I found this process on the forum) :
1. plugin the usb pendrive : ok this one is easy ;-)
2. boot from DSL 0.8.1.1 cdrom : ok
3. At the system menu select Shells->root-access : ok
4. wget http://ibiblio.org/pub.....tar.gz : skip this one but have frugual_usb.tar.gz on hard disk instead and mounted it
5. mydsl-load frugual_usb.tar.gz : ok
6. frugal_usb.sh :
First try : pb because it's said number of sectors is not a multiple of number of sectors per track! So I recreated a partition of type 6 with less than 1024 cylinders and 32 sectors per track/
Second try : ok, scripts went to the end saying it's ok.
7 - reboot with usb stick plugged in and in BIOS set to USB-HDD (and also USB-keyboard set to enabled otherwise it won't work).
It detects my key but it says something like 'No operating Sytem found' and stop there.
I'v also tried the menu with install on usb pendrive but it doesn't do anything, it seems that a window is opened and closed immediatly so I have no info on the problem.
Thanks in advance for your help
