User Feedback :: How can I rebuild the kernel?

He probably has his BIOS set to boot from USB or it has that ability and made lilo make it bootable then went from there. I'm totally guessing though.

As an aside, it's generally considered juvenille and rude to insult people because you don't get what you want on your timetable. John's already busted his ass to produce a good distribution and there are several helpful people in this forum that will go out of their way to help those who genuinely need it. Attitudes like this won't make you any friends and won't get you information any more quickly.

Agreed. However, I don't think that the previous comments were meant with any malcontent, simply inexperience.

Thanks anyhow for the pointers and the stark advice.

Yes, thats right, I didnt mean to insult anyone. Sorry if I cause the wrong impression...

Anyway, thanks for the HOWTO link!

I made a dsmnsmalllinux on my bootable USB-Stick and it works...

baogen....

I would be interested to find out how you managed to get the system to boot from the USB device. Getting the distro to fit on a stick is obviously not a problem, but how do you get the system to boot from it? It there a tutorial on this or something?

To boot the DSL from an USB-stick, I just followed what is said in http://rz-obrian.rz.uni-karlsruhe.de/knoppix-usb/
Maybe you can try it.
Any problem, please contact me at baogen729@yahoo.com.cn
