installing to a usb drive - Crazy Larry - 07-02-2015
When I get to the page after selecting Something else....LL doesn't give the option of installing to a flash drive. I know where I want it installed but no option to get there so I always have to quit at that point.

Reading your threads.
Being a crusty old timer myself (with tattoos)
Having to communicate in Linux geek talk. Cuz I can. Because it is faster and easier on me.
try
Code:
sudo fdisk -lor even
Code:
sudo parted -lor even open gparted to get the device name of your usb drive to proceed with the install.
It will be /dev/sdb or /dev/sdc or whatever.
Did you ever get your bios boot issue figured out? I use a PLOP Floppy disc for usb 1.1 port boots, with no bios usb boot support myself. On P3 and older gear.
Hope you learn the new language. I picked up TexMex because it made my life easier also.
Learning new stuff I know is hard for crusty old timers. But I manage OK.
Not a frustrated bone in my body.
Hasta luego. From a redneck scooter tramp with a GED.
