Re: [Trinux-talk] boot on USB drive

[Matthew F. <mf...@ci...>]

I'm assuming these drives use the USB storage (which is SCSI, actually)
so you'd need a modified kernel that includes USB and the right SCSI
stuff.

Right now the only way to boot a non-floppy (or CD) drive is to create a
DOS partition and then boot with loadlin. I don't have acccess to any
devices that allow USB booting, so I haven't been able to try this. I'm
assuming FreeDOS won't recognize it as a drive so that wouldn't work,
but perhaps Win98 (can't remember if that has USB support or not)

Booting off a floppy and loading packages from the drive is definitely
doable, though.

Anybody else have any ideas?
