Re: [LINUX_Newbies] What next?

 

I used a SD card in my netbook and it would act as a physical HD. I ran Ubuntu from a 16 GB SD card and it would boot from grub2. The HD came with Windows XP. Unfortunately I lost my netbook. :(


As I remember, I just did a custom installation and chose the SD card as the installation drive. I wrote grub to the SD card not the HD, otherwise it messed up the Windows bootloader and you could not use the netbook when the removable media was not being used.
