I would like to boot the Linux kernel alone and run busybox, not including a GUI.
How can I do that? How can I make a custom bzImage, initrd.img and how can I change the file structures in that images?

I have Orace linux .iso's on a memory stick. I could burn them to CD's and install linux from the CDs. However I would rather not waste 5 CDs and just install from the memory stick. How can I do that? How do I make the memory stick bootable? I did try changing the boot options but I could find the right one.

It seems that the canonical instructions for making a bootable USB flash drive that runs memtest are at:
[URL]
However, after following them to a T, I boot up the new machine and get:
"could not find kernel image: linux"
Do I need to set up a lilo.conf first?

I would like to boot Ubuntu 8.04 i386 from my USB flash drive. [URL] I took following steps:
1) made sure that usb_storage.ko kernel module is loaded
Code:
root@martin-desktop:~# lsmod | grep -i storage
usb_storage 39585 1
root@martin-desktop:~#
2) inserted USB flash drive
Code:
root@martin-desktop:~# tail -n0 -f /var/log/messages
Jan 29 01:43:23 martin-desktop kernel: [440650.637531] usb 2-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 8
Jan 29 01:43:23 martin-desktop kernel: [440650.776107] usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[code].....
When I set "USB flash drive" as a first bootable device in BIOS, I get SYSLINUX "boot:" prompt and it loads both "vmlinuz" and "initrd.gz", but finally I end up in BusyBox prompt and following message:
Quote:
"Check root= bootarg cat /proc/cmdline or missing modules, devices: cat /proc/modules ls /dev ALERT! does not exist. Dropping to a shell!"
Last boot message which I see is "Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0".what might cause such behavior? Did I miss anything while preparing USB flash drive?

I have a PC with no option for a keyboard. I have to install the operating systems without a keyboard or mouse.
I have to make a bootable USB stick which can allow me to connect to the PC from my Laptop with a VNC connection, then the complete installation using IP to IP. I did this with the following:
Download [URL] Extract the files of .iso to my laptop Add the manual file in CentOS-6.0-i386-minimal/isolinux/ks.cfg
install
lang en_US.UTF-8
keyboard us
timezone --utc Europe/Brussels
rootpw --iscrypted $6$i5qEWD.
selinux --disabled
[Code]....
This allows you to modify your original iso files with the new contents and pack it as one .iso file
Finally load unetbootin and burn to your USB or disk or CD

I just downloaded Ubuntu 9.04 while using the 8.10 live cd. I was planning to burn it to a disc, but I forgot all about the live cd issue. So is there anyway I can burn Ubuntu 9.04 without having to download it to a real os. Or can I make a bootable usb with the live cd of 8.10.

I am trying to make a bootable usb with ubuntu 10.10. I want to wipe my hddn and install ubuntu 10.10 and win7 (dual boot). I cant use cds cause my cd drive is broken so usb is my only way. When I have created the usb it doesn't work properly. This is what happens when I start the comp. with the usb:

I have tried to make the usb in both ubuntu and win7 with the same results. I have created a working usb boot before but with an older version. I have come across this problem sometime ago when I tried to burn kubunt on a cd. Think it was the 10.04 version.
