Kerry, Are you using a linux filesystem on the stick or the default vfat? my guess is that it should be a ext3 filesystem. the 'mount' command (in console) will show you what it is. to create the linux ext3 filesystem on the stick. umount /dev/sda1 cfdisk /dev/sda (create linux partition sda1 type 83) mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sda1 mount /dev/sda1 as before put the slax sytem file on it etc. sorry this is late, have been away a few days. cheers, keith.
