In next release, the installer will not allow to create a superfloppy on a device which has a partition table, unless you specify the --force flag.
Cheers, Etienne.

Hi Etienne.
Recently it was late at night and I was tired. I installed Gujin to my
16GB flash drive, which if I remember correctly was /dev/sda. I didn't
read the warning, because Gujin always shows it. I just answered "yes" to
the warning. This began to erase the entire drive. I had wanted to
install to a B.E.E.R. partition, something like /dev/sda0, instead.
Please do two things...

I am trying to fix a problem now: If a big ISO image is on an ext2 filesystem, it will have too many fragments (the file metadata is interleaved with the file data, usual data fragment of 8192 sectors, max 128 fragments for Gujin so max size is approx CDROM size, not DVD).
A file with too many fragments will not be counted as an ISO file in the initial screen.
Using another filesystem would...

Hi malo87,
Your message is not really precise. Process in order:
- if you do, with gujin-2.7, the dd to erase the beginning of USB disk and then "./gujin /dev/sdg --mbr", does that USB boot the system and the disk is displayed in verbose mode?
- Then, if you do an "fdisk /dev/sdg", delete the only partition and create two or more primary partition, and re-install Gujin like "./gujin...

HI.. I've notice the same error on my 16gb usb pen. Still can't able to see the device on Gujin menu. Only partition from my local hd.. I've tried changing BIOS, EBIOS, --usb_hdd option, making only one fat16 partition, making only one primary partition with gujin inside and other logical partition with isos "catted" inside.
Still not working
:(.

Parted Magic can be booted as unpacked iso, but doesn't use the bootfrom= cheatcode
See http://partedmagic.com/documentation/124-grub4dos-iso-booting.html for more info.
Ubuntu can be booted from an iso. You need to add "iso-scan/filename=/boot/iso/ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso" to the kernel parameters.
See also [http://www.panticz.de/MultiBootUSB][1] for other parameters used by other...

OK, following that link, I downloaded the smallest distribution to test myself: slitaz-2.0.iso from http://www.slitaz.org/en/get/index.html#stable .
This distribution has a file name bzimage in the /boot directory, but its initrd is named rootfs.gz, so Gujin will not find it.
So, I did, as root:
# mount -o loop '/home/etienne/Desktop/slitaz-2.0.iso' /mnt/disk
# cp -a /mnt/disk...
