Install F8 on USB stick instead of hard disk: problem

[Joachim Backes]

Hi,

for experimenting purposes, I installed F8 on a 4GB USB stick
(2 partitions: P1 for "/" with ext3/3 GB, and P2: swap), and not on HD.

The installation was performed without problem, after install I could reboot,
the grub boot prompt appeared, I could select my os, but then grub said: error 15 (file not found).

May it be that P1 should be formatted as fat16?

Regards

Joachim Backes
