USB boot problem on 210 PRO CE but not 211

#1 Post by lotech »

Hi there,

Can anyone tell me the difference in USB boot routine of the above 2, I am using the same Sandisk Cruzer 512 to test all Puppy version, but not all can boot, I find no different in FAT and FAT32 format, I tried on different PC the same result, the boot up hangs in the middle when 'attaching sdx'. This is a pain in the neck to me, the problem just going on and off across different versions, last one boots this one not next one may be......

Hi lotech,
I have the same problem with puppy pro and it seems to be a simular problem as with puppy 2.02 as discussed in http://www.murga.org/~puppy/viewtopic.p ... 28&start=0

The solution here was to download "for_initrd.tar.gz" from this thread
http://www.murga.org/~puppy/viewtopic.php?p=62097#62096

Can this also be done for puppy pro?

Thanks for the info., I hoped that this problem will be fixed in later version, and I specially like and want the pro ce edition, it has everything I want.
