hopefully someone can help me out. i wish to perform a pendrive HDD install from a dsl live cd. i have a usb thumbdrive with one 976mb fat32 partition. my first problem is i cannot get the usb drive mounted.
the way i think it should work is i plug the usb drive in, it shows up as sda1 in the mount manager underneath the cpu stats thingy, i click the squigly line and it turns green, i right click the desktop choose tools - install dsl to pendrive - HDD, and follow on screen instructions.
when i plug in my usb drive it never shows up in the mount manager. using Emelfm i cannot find anything that says sda(1,2,3...) in /dev or /mnt, although there is a /pendrive file in /mnt.
because i cannot mount my usb drive i have not even made it to the installation part. am i missing something, why isn't this working?
thank you for your time.
