I called Kingston and they said they support it - however - she has heard it done.
Anybody know how ? (I used just about everything that is documented on the internet - HP's utility, PE...., and nothing works)
Thanks, Duaine
Syslinux lets vfat filesystems be bootable under linux. You have to make a single primary partition of type c on the usb drive and *make it bootable* with fdisk. Format it vfat. Then you install the code from syslinux/mbr/mbr.bin to it with dd. Then copy syslinux to the usb drive. Patrick Verner's page on making his PartEdMagic usb bootable will get you started. You don't actually have to copy the PartEdMagic stuff to the finished product. Don't use the syslinux that comes with openSUSE -- get it from the PartEdMagic CD http://partedmagic.com/documentation/130-creating-the-liveusb.html Another good example: http://www.sysresccd.org/Sysresccd-manual-en_How_to_install_SystemRescueCd_o... Again, use the syslinux from SystemRescue CD, not the openSUSE one. HTH -- N. B.
