After running dd and trying it a few times, it seems that it has worked? |

I now am getting past that not boot record error and not I'm sitting |
3 |
at a black screen completley blank with the cursor at the top left. |

I created both a standard linux partition and ran gnap overlay and |
6 |
also a fat32 and ran gnap overlay (Documentation didn't say what type |
7 |
of partition) I'm didn't get any diffrence in the output, so I'm not |
8 |
sure what is happening. |

I have a working iso, is there anyway I can place those files on the |
11 |
DOM? and get it to boot up that way? |
