Re: Bootable flash/USB/thumb drive



I'm using Slax rc6
features a dev environment bootable from cd or usb or hd
I even went as far as making a swap partition and home partition on the usb key!

Good luck!

Anybody successfully create a bootable one of these. I've been trying, using
instructions from various websites located through searches but, am not
scoring any success. Anybody able to point me to a site they've had luck
with. I'm basically wanting to use a flash drive to boot from for trouble
shooting purposes.
