Re: Build a LIVE Kubuntu Flash Drive, How-To
Looks like your flash drive should be referenced as (hdx,1), where x should NOT be zero.
For example, in Reply #7, mine was x=2:
(2) Set up GRUB in the MBR of the flash drive.
= = > CAUTION: I am using my notation sdc = hd2 for the flash drive here. Yours may be different!
Open Konsole, type sudo grub, at the GRUB prompt type these commands:
grub> root (hd2,0)
grub> setup (hd2)
grub> quit
$exit
This sets up GRUB in the MBR of the flash drive, (hd2), from the GRUB files in partition 1, (hd2,0).
All this work is done (at Konsole) in your existing hard drive Kubuntu, so the flash drive will be seen as on hd1 or hd2 or hd3, etc.
BIOS:
If your BIOS supports "Boot from USB," there should be a menu somewhere that says that, where you can check a box to turn it on. It may be kind of embedded into other screen menus. Mine was a one-liner on the page where you select the boot-drive order.
