DSL - Frugal Install, Mount USB disk

[lmart]

Newbie

Finally made a successful frugal install. However, it will boot only with the LiveCD. Shouldn't I be able to boot sans the LiveCD?

How do I mount a USB disk?

Tks.

umm, u might have to install to HDD first.. if thats what u mean, or if u want the USB install ity to usb... then specify where the usb is (hda,hda2 ect ect)

hi,
it took me a couple of hours to get from a frugal install that went all the way through, to a successful boot of a frugal install. I already had GRUB installed from getting Xubuntu running and dual booting with XP. I think that may have messed with the install scripts, because I had to edit my menu.lst by hand from Xubuntu in order to boot into DSL 3.3. Even now, it doesn't look quite the same in the boot up process, but I do get there.

what are some of your system details?
