Hi Pierre

Looking at the error message itt seems to look for the installation source on 
device a - normally usb device is b or c
Also many USB disks come with multiple partitions.  Use gparted to "blow away" 
all the partitions  leave it unpartitioned 
and let MIC image creator create the partitions for you. 

Best regards

Pat

Subject: [Moblin Dev] Unable to install from USB

Hello all,

I have created an Install USB target for the melow-lpia-ubuntu-hardy
platform using MIC 1. I have no problem burning the image to a USB pen,
it's really when I try to install the image on my system that everything
goes wrong.

I have tried several different target configurations (Target config
button in MIC1) with no luck.

My system has a 2GB HDD and 512B of RAM.

I get errors like this:

checking device /dev/hda for installation source...
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
...

and 

Unable to open /dev/hda
...
Unable to read /dev/hda
...
Could not stat /dev/hda1 --- No such file or partition


I have ommited many other errors. But at the end of all this I get a
funny message "Install Successfully", but nothing works.

Any suggestions?
