USB-Boot

[IG Schwaben]

Dear Sir or Madam,

I want to create a bootable USB harddisk as Backup for problems.

The problem: Link from MBR to normal harddisk not to GRUB of USB harddisk.

My Trial:

USB harddisk is linked as sdg

address@hidden:/home/ig-schwaben# grub-install --grub-shell=/media/sdg5/boot/grub/menu.lst  /dev/sdg
Searching for GRUB installation directory ... found: /boot/grub
/usr/sbin/grub-install: 500: /media/sdg5/boot/grub/menu.lst: Permission denied
/usr/sbin/grub-install: 500: /media/sdg5/boot/grub/menu.lst: Permission denied
/usr/sbin/grub-install: 500: /media/sdg5/boot/grub/menu.lst: Permission denied
/usr/sbin/grub-install: 500: /media/sdg5/boot/grub/menu.lst: Permission denied
/usr/sbin/grub-install: 500: /media/sdg5/boot/grub/menu.lst: Permission denied
The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly.

==> I think it is a problem of the path for all files of GRUB folder of USB harddisk.

Thank you very much in advance
and best regards

Ralf Stegmaier
