Hi, Downloaded the Fusion 14 RC and install it on a USB. Was trying to boot but it hangs at the Syslinux 3.86 2010-04-01 Ebios copyright …
Any idea what’s the caused ? I even tried Fedora 14 live and also facing the same problem but not on Ubuntu 10.10 live which i can manage to boot it up successfully.
By the way i’m using Dell vostro 3500. Please help TQ
Which tool you used for creating live usb?
Hi Valent,
I’m using liveusb-creator which downloaded from fedora project site. Any idea what went wrong?
These instrucitions delete any data you have on your usb so be careful:
Try using dd command:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraLiveCD/USBHowTo#Command_Line_Method_-_Linux_only
or try using livecd-iso-to-disk:
livecd-iso-to-disk –format –reset-mbr /path/to/ISO /dev/USBPARTITIONNAME
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraLiveCD/USBHowTo#Run_livecd-iso-to-disk_script
i will try it today.
Ok.
If you have any questions just ask!
Ivan.
How’s the situation with NVidia and ATI proprietary graphics drivers?

Hi
I am realy impressed what ist working out of the box in fusion. It could relay be my new distro – instead of mandriva. The only bad point: the relay big foodprint – needs 5GB to install on disk. It could realy be the best dristo in town if some apps would be replaced by smaller one. I.A. tomboy/mono…
I am willing to make some suggestions on makeing fusion smaller – but where should i post it…
make you day
