Hello all,

My Eee PC 1005-HAP hangs when trying to boot from a Puredyne 9.10 usb
live boot thumbdrive. The bios is set to boot from USB. All I get is a
black screen with a blinking cursor after the bios loads.

I made the USB drive by booting a MacBook Pro into Puredyne using the
live CD, mounting the Mac partition with the Puredyne image on it, and
using the make-live-device.sh script.

As I understand it, MacBook Pros won't boot from USB. The Mac is the
only other computer I have access to, so I haven't been able to test
the USB drive on another machine.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
J

Found this:

"By default the 1005HA has something called 'Boot Booster' enabled which might prevent you from booting using a USB-Stick. To disable this go into the BIOS by repeatedly pressing F2 after turning on the Eee PC. Don't change anything and just press F10 to save and exit from the BIOS. After having exited repeatedly press ESC to get into the boot device selection screen. Once there just select your USB-Stick..."
