My estimate is that I will have materials in a day or two and then
another day or two to finish up checking out all the suggestions I've
got. I am estimating that I'll test one or both over the weekend.
To the list:
I've download and burned PartedMagic. It booted properly and I was able
to see what was available via "ls". Typed "clonezilla" and followed
directions ... took three tries and I don't understand why, but I was
able to get an image onto a USB.
I am now trying to see if I can boot from the image, but my poor little
laptop doesn't give me any options except CD/DVD or hard drive when I
hit f9 in the boot-up process.
One of the things I took from all the helpful info I got was that I
could boot from the USB to confirm it was working. It appears that I
can't do such and from what I can tell in Clonezilla, there doesn't seem
to be an option for booting the PartedMagic CD and telling it to reboot
off the USB.
Am I missing something, or is the USB something I can only transfer back
to hard drive?
I want to give G4L a try, but it seems the issue is now my laptop not
wanting to boot off USB which renders testing an USB image academic? ....
Thanks, Paul
