Re: Missing Operating System?!?

I think I found your problem, try this: sudo /home/jwesleycooper/ubcd51b1-extracted/ubcd/tools/linux/ubcd2usb/syslinux --install --directory /boot/syslinux /dev/sdd1 The offset of the partition doesn't matter. I never had any problems installing Syslinux to partitions that start at sector 2048. Als...

Re: Missing Operating System?!?

Could you please double check that /ubcd51b1-extracted/ubcd/tools/linux/ubcd2usb/syslinux is indeed executable, and that the path is exactly that, as the instructions requests? It is simpler for all of us to use the correct path while giving / receiving instructions. Could you try connecting your U...

Re: Missing Operating System?!?

The Syslinux MBR is correctly installed and the first partition of your USB drive is marked active. Syslinux is not installed in the PBR of sdb1. Try to remove the /boot/syslinux/ldlinux.sys file onf sdb1 and run the Syslinux installer again. Then run Boot Info Script again. It should display somet...

Re: Missing Operating System?!?

Let's separate the issues. Also, I checked, and the instructions included have *not* changed one bit. ubcd51b1 -> ubcd -> tools -> linux -> ubcd2usb -> readme.txt contains the following line: 4. Type a, then 1, to make the first primary partition active or bootable. which wasn't there in ubcd503. T...

Re: Missing Operating System?!?

Um ... the beta doesn't seem to contain Avira Antivir SystemRescue ... which was one of the things I really wanted to use. May I ask why this is?

Missing Operating System?!?

I decided that I was going to update the AV files for UBCV V5.03, then install it to my flash drive (via opensuse linux): so I followed the instructions online and in the readme to the letter, with seemingly no issues at all ... and what do I get when I try to boot it on my Dell Vostro 1520, after e...
