I would like to create a rescue image similar to rescue.iso, except formatted to go on a USB pen drive. I took all the files in the rescue.iso image and copied all of the files over to the pen drive. Then I reconfigured the isolinux part to use syslinux instead and installed syslinux on the drive. It seems simple enough, and it *almost* works. The drive boots, and asks for language and keyboard information but then asks for the location of the rescue image. I assume its looking for an iso-9660 filesystem where it can get the stage2.img ext2 filesytem which is to become the root filesystem during the rescue operation. Of course there is no rescue iso filesystem and giving it the location of the FAT filesystem with the same contents dosen't make it very happy. So what should I change to make it look for a FAT filesystem. I assume that it would be in the linuxrc executable in the initrd.img that gets loaded by syslinux, but I don't know where to look for the source for that. Any hints would be appreciated. cya .sig
