Using USB Live: With the Installer I have gone as far as formatting my hard drive to Linux Swap (40gb D drive, other drive is 60 GB (Windows XP). Bailed out of the install at this stage as I was not sure if by installing Elive on (D) with Windows on (C) that I would still be able to boot windows XP at start up. Have I formatted the (D) correctly -and will I still be able to dual boot XP. Cby rasta - Configurations and Hardware Solutions

Thanks for the advice. I've tried using unetbootin latest version , which I used to make a boot disk with BT4 - no problems. I've now downloaded 3x iso files of Elive. Running out of ideas? The process to produce boot disk when running through unetbootin, seems to work, gets to 98-99 % extract/copying and then I wait another ten minutes and it then tells me every thing is complete aby rasta - [OLD] - Live mode
Had another thought, what are the minimum system requirements ? Installing onto 1GB USB stick? 700mb file. Is 1Gb too small? Probably just talking to my self - cheers chrisby rasta - [OLD] - Live mode
Hi I'm new to Linux - hoping to convert from windows, but I have been unable to boot Elive from USB. I think that I will stick with windows. Downloaded stable iso (elive_2.0_Topaz_new-kernel_up002) to hard drive. Down loaded special Elive Unetbootin file to USB stick and then followed instructions and installed the iso file to this boot disk. Everything appeared to finish and work duringby rasta - [OLD] - Live mode
