> I used syslinux to make mine bootable, using this information: http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/wiki/index.php/Installing_to_a_USB_Flash_Drive Thanks for the link!! That really helped. I was even able to use my new bootable flash drive to fix my XP NTFS partition. I suspected that the only thing that was messed up in the partition was the first sector, the so-called partition boot sector. I used my usb drive to boot a laptop at work similar to mine in rescue mode and copied the first sector of the NTFS partition to my usb drive (dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/usb/sda1.bin bs=512 count=1). Had to edit the file to set offset 0x18 to the correct number of sectors and offset 0x28 (MFTMirr logical cluster number) to the correct value, neither of which had been clobbered fortunately. Then did dd to write it to my /dev/sda1. It worked!! Greg Smith -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
