Hello,

I did a HDD Install onto a USB drive and am using the usb boot floppy to boot to the drive. When I try use the toram option I get this message "Warning: Changing to /cdrom2 failed".

What should I do?

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Don't worry about it. Upgrade to DSL-2.3

bootfloppy-usb.img is depreciated. Look at the dates on the files.
The standard bootfloppy.img now contains this usb support.
Use the fromusb option using the standard bootfloppy.img

I get a similar warning about /cdrom2 when I use the toram option with DSL 2.3. I've installed a dsl-embedded setup on my USB stick.

Is booting from usb using toram not supported with the embedded setup?

Thanks!
