Hi,
I'm not sure that syslinux supports USB device.
If it works with USB, I'll be happy.
I tried SPB-Linux before. It worked for my 512MB USB device.
(I was able to put RH9 to my USB device:->)
Thanks,

>When I run syslinux on my Sandisk Cruzer (512MB) USB flash RAM with the "syslinux /dev/sda" , it corrupts the partition table that I had already created on my USB device. It attempts to boot but eventually fails trying to load the kernel. If I try "syslinux /dev/sda1", the USB device fail to boot at all. I would think that /dev/sda would be the correct device to use if one wants to write a boot record to track 0, sector 0 and not /dev/sda1. Am I missing something here?
