Normally I'd just edit the lilo config and change sdb to sda but the rpi doesn't use lilo and I don't see anything on /boot I can edit? Is there an easy way to fix this? oh well, I setup an ftp server for the source real quick so I didn't need the usb flash. Last edited by enine; 01-03-2016 at 08:57 PM.
