There might be some helpful advice in that thread. I didn't find this thread. Under Fedora-11, the USB stick is /dev/sdc , with the Fedora-12 partition at /dev/sdc2 . However, when I ran grub interactively, and set grub> root (hd2,1) it said that that disk did not exist. I tried hd0 to hd6 but it only found my 2 SCSI disks at hd0 and hd1 . It seems that grub does not necessarily see a USB disk, even if Fedora can see it. I should say that this is only an experiment. I could perfectly well install from hard disk (and probably will) or (possibly) with PXEboot. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
