Hello, I try to boot Tails 0.7.2 (http://tails.boum.org/) which is based on Debian, and experience the following problem:
I am using a Toshiba Portege R100 laptop. This model can't boot from USB or CD drive (unless it is a special one from Toshiba, which I don't have), but it can boot from PCMCIA. So I am using a CF card with adapter plugged into the PCMCIA slot. This method works well, and I am able to use GRUB on the CF card to boot/install various operating systems, including windows xp and Mini Linux. I copied the Tails 0.7.2 iso to the card root, the instruction in menu.lst is: title Tails map (hd0,3) /tails.iso (hd32) map --hook chainloader (hd32) Debian starts to load, I get the splash screen with the language choices, and can continue booting. It then stops with the message: BOOT FAILED! The error message was: Unable to find a medium containing a live file system. It then enters a shell (initramfs). I tried to load it first to memory and boot from there, but I get exactly the same error. What do I do wrong? Is there a solution to the problem? Thanking you in advance for your help, Paul -- Best regards, Promofms mailto:[email protected] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
