What am I missing???
the `expert' flag after `linux rescue'. USB disks aren't searched without it, for some reason I can't fathom.
I re-installed from scratch, with automatic partitioning (LVM volumes..) Then following Simon's instructions I created a usbinitrd.img.
Please note that I want to start up automatically Fedora only when the USB disk is connected (no alternative OS available), and when USB is disconnected Windows XP will be started
Now I have only made modifications connected to the new image to grub.conf
My grub.conf file now looks like:
#boot=/dev/sda1 default=0 timeout=5 splashimage (hd1,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz hiddenmenu title Fedora Core (2.6.9-1.667) root (hd1,0) kernel /vmlinux-2.6.9-1.667 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet initrd /usbinitrd.img
Is it correct??
How do I install grub now on the USB disk???
Tnx
