GRUB bootable DVD ISOs can boot from USB sticks by default. Neil, Can you elaborate? For example how do you know a given *.iso* is grub bootable? It there a test? Is there a list? Just burn it to a usbstick and test? Justuse a tool such as the aforementioned "isohybrid" can convert any *.iso* to a grub bootable? I like the idea of one image (iso) being able to install via MBR or grub. How do you control the file system; set it up first on the target HDD/SDD? Which tool do you use, as part of the usb package? gptfdisk (gdisk)? > That must be a UEFI bootable disc. ISOs can have all sorts of strange > setups Your telling me? So when did the gentoo liveDVD become "grub bootable" ? Again, How do you know what a given images is capable, as the details of so many seem to poor--> 2----> undocumented......? Have you ever tried "pentoo-installer" off of a live gentoo dvd ? with any usb iso? curiously, James
