Which version of CentOS?  6.0, 6.1, or 6.2?  Which kernel?

USB3 support isn't as robust as it should be, prior to 6.2, but I've not tried 
booting with USB3.0.

I do know the live DVD will recognize a drive on a USB3.0 port, but I haven't 
tried booting a live CentOS stick there yet Hmmm, perhaps I should, since I 
do have one (but it's not 'installed' to the stick, it's a LiveUSB image, not 
an installation).

[CentOS] Centos6: Boot from usb 3.0

2012-02-22 Thread Volker Poplawski
Hi all,

I'm booting Centos6 from a usb 3.0 stick.

This works fine as long as the usb-stick is connected to a usb 2.0 port. 
Once I plug the the usb-stick into a blue usb 3.0 port centos fails on 
mounting the root filesystem.

Any hints on that?
