Hello, I just started using DSL a while ago, and I can't say how much I love it.
I don't have a CD Burner, so went the USB Drive route with my Lexar 128MB USB JumpDrive. Downloaded the boot.img, extracted the DSL.ISO onto the JumpDrive, and booted up. No problems there. Everything ran accordingly, and I was rocking & rolling with Linux finally.
Now I would like to make DSL my secondary OS. So I clicked on the HDinstall option in DSL. It asked me what drive to put it on, and I picked "/dev/hda2", being my second partition. The script ran ok from the looks of it. Honestly I don't know if there were any errors, because everything ran so fast, that I couldn't see anything. At the end of the installation is asked if I wanted to run LILO, so I said yes, and my computer rebooted.
During the reboot, my computer got mad at me and said "Missing OS. Please Hit Any to Continue".. and it kept doing this over and over again til I gave up.
My question is what I did wrong, or if I did anything wrong. Can the USBboot version of DSL be installed to the harddrive , and why didn't LILO start?
Thankyou
