universal installer failure Subject description: Universal installer fails to install to usb flash device |
|
Hi I've used puppy's universal installer several times before, and never had problems- but with 3.0 it does not seem to work.
however my pendrive is formatted (fat16, ext2, ext3, fat32, one partition, two partitions, bootable flag, no flag - formatted in windows, formatted with linux, partitioned with gparted, or fdisk, or cfdisk (you see I've tried a few options ) it is only recognised as 'superfloppy formatted with ext3 - no files are copied across (although the operation takes some time and uses both the CD-drive and hard disk (swap?)). No options to install a boot loader or make the disk bootable appear afterwards.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Installing on ATA hard-drive no problem.

This bug report probably would be better placed in the main v3.00 bug reports thread. When posted otherwise, these seem to fall between the cracks and never get tended to. -aj
