Hello,

First, make sure that you have loaded the proper usb kernel modules
for your system in your initrd.  I have a router that has OHCI usb
root hubs on the motherboard and the stock initrd with the Bering CD
image would not work since most intel systems have UHCI root hubs.
Once you have the modules loading at boot, then do something like this
to your leaf.cfg on the usb device that you created with the bering
packages on it:

# The first entry is the backup device.
# If equal packages exist on multiple devices, the ones on the left most device
PKGPATH="/dev/sda1:msdos"

Also, on the bootable CD have your isolinux.cfg configured like this:

display syslinux.dpy
timeout 0
append reboot=bios
default linux initrd=initrd.lrp init=/linuxrc rw root=/dev/ram0
LEAFCFG=/dev/sda1:msdos

The last line above is all one line by the way.  It's been a while
since I set this up but I think that this is mostly what is needed to
make it work.  I have two systems like this that I maintain and they
both work well.  One has OHCI usb and the other has UHCI usb.

Take Care & Good Luck,

Fred Stevens
