Thread: Boot CDROM + USB root ?

-

hi,

i'm running ubuntu 6.06 on old ibm thinkpad t21. setup act print server , apt cacher.

save power running ubuntu usb flash drive instead of hard disk. hard drive configured power down when not in use reason disk accessed every few minutes no apparent reason.

thinkpad not support booting usb disk need boot cdrom , run ubuntu usb flash drive. ideally boot menu choose between booting ubuntu usb pen drive or booting clonezilla cd.

can point me in right direction instructions on how create boot cdrom loads operating system usb flash drive. have read instructions on creating boot cd alot of them out of date.
i'm assuming usb flash drive needs have ubuntu installed on ie copy file systems current hard disk.

i share project working in free time: name fuelino. fuelino fuel injection controller , data logger designed motorcycles equipped efi (electronic fuel injection). regulating fuel injected in cylinder, possible increase power of engine. if modification optional, if have stock engine, becomes mandatory if change components of motorcycle, such exhaust pipe, camshaft, cylinder size (bore kit), air filter , on. fuelino helps adjust injection timing, achieve proper stoichiometric air-fuel ratio maximizes output power of engine, or minimizes fuel consumption. compensation applied original signal timing, in %, depends on throttle position sensor signal (if connected), , engine rotation speed (calculated measured time period between 2 consecutive "start of injection" events). the project open source, can find more info @ following links: http://www.monocilindro.com/fuelino/ http://www.monocilindro.com/category/electronics/fuelino-project/ the following image shows how connec...
