Hi,
I'm searched for ages trying to find what I want but still can't so I'm posting here hoping one of you can point me in the right direction.
I don't want to mess around with usb booting, because its messy and unrealiable in my opinion.
What I want is to boot with a floppy disk into a boot loader, and then select an OS to boot that is stored on my USB key.
I've tried doing this with grub on the floppy but I can't work out how to get grub to find the usb key and boot an OS stored on it.
I know floppy to usb booting is possible, because DSL (Damn Small Linux) does it. from there site you can download the os onto your usb, and a floppy image which you burn, reboot to the floppy, and then load the os on the usb key from the floppy.
What I want is a general way of doing this with any mini linux distro I have on my usb key and boot them all from my one master boot floppy.
How can do this?
Many Thanks,
Technosites
