Hi, I installed F11 on a USB-HDD. I used a network-install-CD and allowed the installer to use the entire disk. I did not change the partition layout. I installed the bootloader to the same USB-drive. The installation seemed to be successful, but I cannot boot from this USB-HDD. WHen I turn on the computer, it reads a bit from the USB-HDD, abd then it boots immediately from the built in HDD. In general, I can boot from this USB-HDD, e.g., When I transfer a LiveCD to the same USB-HDD, it boots. fdisk /dev/sdc produced the output: The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 77825. There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024, and could in certain setups cause problems with: 1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO) 2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK) Command (m for help): p Disk /dev/sdc: 640.1 GB, 640135028736 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 77825 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Disk identifier: 0x00065951 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdc1 * 1 26 204800 83 Linux Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary. /dev/sdc2 26 77825 624924481 8e Linux LVM Any idea? (I posted the same issue on www.fedoraforum.org last week, but I did not receive a meaningful response.) -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
