Hi.
I'm Mandriva's 2009 user, and I'm trying in last few days to install Ubuntu 8.10 on my pen drive. But have problem as is in tittle of this post.
1. First. I was trying to do this with a program Unetbootin downloaded from this site:
http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net
After the every instalation I get:
Code:
Could not find kernel image: linux
boot:_
In file syslinux.cfg is:
Code:
menu title UNetbootin
timeout 100
label unetbootindefault
menu label Default
kernel /ubnkern
append initrd=/ubninit file=/cdrom/preseed/kubuntu.seed boot=casper quiet splash --
label ubnentry0
menu label ^Help
kernel /ubnkern
append initrd=/ubninit
label ubnentry1
menu label oem=OEM install (for manufacturers)
kernel /ubnkern
append initrd=/ubninit oem=oem-config/enable=true
I have changed in this file some path, exactly:
a) path /cdrom on /media/disk (I saw this path in Dolphin)
b) path /cdrom on /dev/sdb1 (I saw this path in Unetbootin)
But error is still aperring when I'm trying to run Ubuntu from my pendrive.
I have edit this file sylinux.cfg like this:
Code:
menu title UNetbootin
timeout 100
label unetbootindefault
menu label Default
kernel /dev/sdb1/ubnkern
append initrd=/dev/sdb1/ubninit file=/dev/sdb1/preseed/kubuntu.seed boot=casper quiet splash --
label ubnentry0
menu label ^Help
kernel /dev/sdb1/ubnkern
append initrd=/dev/sdb1/ubninit
label ubnentry1
menu label oem=OEM install (for manufacturers)
kernel /ubnkern
append initrd=/dev/sdb1/ubninit oem=oem-config/enable=true
and
Code:
menu title UNetbootin
timeout 100
label unetbootindefault
menu label Default
kernel /media/disk/ubnkern
append initrd=/media/disk/ubninit file=/media/disk/preseed/kubuntu.seed boot=casper quiet splash --
label ubnentry0
menu label ^Help
kernel /media/disk/ubnkern
append initrd=/media/disk/ubninit
label ubnentry1
menu label oem=OEM install (for manufacturers)
kernel /media/disk/ubnkern
append initrd=/media/disk/ubninit oem=oem-config/enable=true
But nothing works :/
I have tried to make it form live cd. I used: System -> Administration -> Assistent ...
but when I'm trying to get to ubuntu, the grub which was installed with Mandriva on hard disk is "stronger" than this which is installed with ubuntu, and I see him every time when I'm trying to boot Ubuntu from pen drive.
I have changed the boot priority in bios - the USB-HDD is first, I have disabled even hard disk, and cdrom in boot. Nothing is helping me :/
The only way I founded is that when I'm making standard installation ubuntu on pen drive and my hard disk is disabled from motherboard, but is any solution for me :/
I've tried this solutions on 2 diffrent computers, and nothing works :/
