Here some information how to boot the livesystem: DO NOT USE unetbootin! No support, if you use it! a) Boot from CD/DVD: Burn the ISO to a CD or DVD and boot the system b) Boot from USB-drive: - Two possibilities: 1. Format the USB-drive in FAT32 (you can do this even in a running Windows system) 2. Format the USB-drive in ext2 (with a special Windows driver from http://www.fs-driver.org you can do this also in a running Windows system) - In Windows burn the ISO to harddisk (Nero can do this), ín linux mount the ISO. - Copy all files to the top-level-directory of the USB-drive (min. 1 GB) - Choose the bootinst_*.* corresponding to your choosen filesystem and operation system. E. g. run the bootinst_fat.bat on a FAT32 formatted USB-drive in Windows or run the bootinst_ext.sh on an ext2 formatted USB-drive in linux. - Boot the system with the plugged USB-drive on your preferred note-/netbook/pc. Store the current changes of the running livesystem to the used USB-drive: - According to the wished storagecapacity for the changes (with a 1-GB-USB-drive you will choose the /save/save256.zip) unzip the wished zip-file out of /save/ to / of the USB-drive BEFORE you boot the livesystem. This will create a 256-MB-storage-file for your changes, which is mounted by the booting system itself. - At the bootprompt of the livesystem press TAB to add to the APPEND-line the option changes=savechanges.xfs to make the storage file known to the system, then boot the livesystem. - The changes will be stored in the xfs-container so that the changes are present after another reboot. - You can add the option changes=savechanges.xfs permanently to the file /boot/ffsl.cfg (at the end of the APPEND-line) c) Boot from harddrive: - Copy the content of the ISO to a partition (no matter how the partition is formatted!) - Edit an existing bootloader configuration in this way: KERNEL /boot/vmlinuz APPEND initrd=/boot/initrd.gz ramdisk_size=8888 splash=verbose noload=systembackup vga=785 max_loop=512 german sgnfile=fluxflux-sl.sgn root=/dev/ram0 rw live quiet (adjust the correct path to every line) - Option: Boot from CD and eject the CD immediately after the bootsplash will appear! Then the system will search the livesystem at the harddisk!
