If your BIOS on the computer does not support booting from USB devices then you probably got the correct result. :-)I am trying to have grub boot off a partition on a USB stick. I issued the following command from the grub command line: % insmod uhci grub was hung and I had to do a hard reset. Is this to be expected, considering that this is a fairly old system and the BIOS knows nothing about USB devices. Thanks, CJ _______________________________________________
You might check to see if there is a newer bios for your motherboard that does support USB booting, but if not, I can't see how you could ever get it to work!
