Thanks, Fred, for the instructions. Some questions: 1. I presume I have to rebuild the CD image to use the usb initrd since I have an Intel board? 2. I don't see an isolinux.cfg on the 3.1 CD. There is a syslinux.cfg so I guess that's the equivalent to isolinux.cfg? 3. Did you have to rebuild the bootdisk.ima?
