Hi,


Following are the steps i used to install syslinux on a external usb hdd.


   1. Create a 1GB partition
   2. Format it with FAT32
   3. Extract live iso on partition
   4. Install syslinux on partition.

Note: Default timeout is 3 seconds in syslinux.cfg

The problem is that Automatic boot in # seconds...** stays on screen for
more than 5 seconds. Counting starts from 3 to 1 but message is still there.

Is this some issue with external usb hdd interface?

How can i fix it?


Regards,
