Does anyone know how to make a USB pen with Ubuntu boot on a T43. I have tried with 7.10 and 8.04...I don't think it is a version issue but rather a setting in the T43 BIOS.
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=693273 That thread seems to point to a resolution by disabling FDD boots but that hasn't seemed to help. I moved everything out of the boot sequence except USB HDD, laptop boots then hangs with "SYSLINUX 3.62 2008-03-01 EBIOS Copyright (C) 1994-2008 H. Peter Anvin" then a blinking cursor... It never boots past this point, this occurs before the ubuntu menu just after the POST. I can boot with a CD-R but I wanted to configure the laptop to see how well it would work and add packages, which is why I would like to get a persistant install on the USB, plus the USB is much faster. I saw quite a few T43's at some of the meetings any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Matthias A.
