EXTLINUX
  • moulefritemoulefrite April 2010
    Hi

    I have a short question :

    I would like to boot an rootfs in a USB
    from an EXTLINUX installed on the hardrive.
    (ve heard that grub is bad for that job)

    For exemple, here's what we get in extlinux.conf after creating a typical LiveUSB :

    --------------------------------------------
    display extlinux.msg

    label slitaz
    kernel /boot/bzImage
    append initrd=/boot/rootfs.gz rw root=/dev/null vga=normal autologin home=*****

    include common.cfg

    ---------------------------------------------

    Or, i would like this extlinux.conf to have a label that aim Windows on
    C: drive ...

    So... I've found no documentation in the handbook which explains how
    and where I can introduce and configure ExTLINUX for cross-partition-installing


    Somebody can give me an answer ?
