You should verify is Your instalation (grub or lilo) configured to boot |
| 15 |
from SD* device (if you run natively from bios that allows boot from usb |
| 16 |
drive) or You must compile in your kernel drivers to USB Storage. If You |
| 17 |
use GenKernel, that drivers are in INITRD! It cannot be loaded as module |
| 18 |
- must be compiled into kernel. If You have such configuration, try to |
| 19 |
check your filesystem and MBR (Master Boot Record) for read errors. Some |
| 20 |
USB devices also cannot boot from USB, but i think that is a problem of |
| 21 |
Pendrives only. PS: I have gentoo on external drive, that boot correctly |
| 22 |
from bios. |
