It's the boot loader that loads the initramfs and the kernel - remember?
I can confirm that sleep=10 in menu.lst was sufficient to get a savefile to create.....
however, since creation the boot sequence gets all the way to the login prompt (only error message shown which might be significant just after "Loading save file ... done" it says:
ln: /mnt/union/mnt/home/sdb1: Operation not permitted
)
I type root and a lot of error messages flash up (unreadable) and then the screen blanks to grey and the laptop is dead.
I don't seem to be doing too well with this usb stick install ....
