I have an old laptop that I use for testing new versions of Fedora - however although it will boot of a physical CD containing a LiveCD (say of F12 Alpha), it is old enough not to be able to boot off usb devices since the BIOS is not arranged to do so. So a usbkey that contains a LiveCD that works perfectly well on other machines won't play on this particular machine (Fijitsu-Siemens Amilo D 6800)
Can anyone point me to a reference to work around this by booting off say an altered grub stansa in the HD which then refers to a plugged in usbkey to continue loading the LiveCD files from the usbkey? Or something similar? I usually try to avoid using optical media if possible for running both installs and testing LiveCDs. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/-OT--Run-LiveUSB-on-machine-that-can%27t-boot-from-usbkey--tp25204097p25204097.html Sent from the Fedora List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- fedora-list mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
