Hello,
I have downloaded puppy iso (from distro ibiblio) and wanted to create bootable USB but I cannot do that in any of mentioned methods.
1. Method A
This method says "*.usfs.xz, sha1sums.txt, 4install-quirky-to-drive.gz" but in the download site (distro ibiblio) there are no files like *.gz.
2. With SysLinux
The first command fails when it is mounted (it's sdb according to sudo fdisk -l)
syslinux: invalid media signature (not an FAT/NTFS volume?)
And when it is not mounted
syslinux: /dev/sdb: No such file or directory
3. With UnetBootin
It looks like Unetbootin does not work correctly on Fedora Linux.
Error: BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter) 9
Its GUI has only closing [X] button and nothing more when I run it.
4. With DD
sudo dd bs=512M if=file.iso of=/dev/sdb
I can write iso to pendrive with this method but it is not bootable. (I have used this pendrive with bootable Fedora and Linux Mint and it worked well for both so pendrive is OK, this method also worked for my Fedora)
But Puppy is not bootable
5. From Puppy Linux
I've tried Puppy Linux about month or two ago and wanted to run it on VirtualBox (on Ubuntu that I had earlier) but it didn't work correctly.
The other method of creating bootable usb with Puppy Linux is to use utility available on Puppy Linux. But I cannot burn it to DVD (incorrectly working dvd) or run correctly in virtualised environment so it won't help.
What should I do to create bootable Puppy Linux?
Thanks!
