Hi there,

I used the frugal script and the bootusb image to crate a system on my usb key.
I selected the option in my bios (ibm T41 laptop) to boot from usb.
Now when I try to boot from my usb key, the computer tries to boot from it and says: invalid system disk, replace disk.

Did I miss something?

Thanks,

nico.

I just had to say - YOU ARE A SAVIOR!!  This worked perfectly on my IBM X31.  Anyone with a Phoenix BIOS that doesn't seem to boot on their IBM notebook series should definitely try this :D
