                  292864+0 records out
17:10:47 < nikt-> but
17:10:49 < nikt-> it doesnt boot
17:11:04 < nikt-> my laptop says "missing operating system"
17:11:31 < nikt-> (backtrack boots correctly, so it has to be something
wrong with debian-live or
                  the method i wrote it...)
17:11:38 < nikt-> any help?
17:17:31 < panthera> try writing it from linux to verify.
17:18:28 < nikt-> well
17:18:31 < nikt-> the problem is
17:18:34 < nikt-> that i dont have linux :/
17:18:48 < panthera> that is what livecds are for.
17:19:43 < nikt-> hmm
17:20:24 < nikt-> thats kinda stupid making bootable debian live cd to
make bootable debian live usb
                  :/
17:21:07 < nikt-> does usb version behave like normal hdd linux?
17:21:13 < panthera> from my point of view, it's stupid to have windows
in the first place.
17:21:15 < panthera> yes.
17:21:18 < nikt-> i mean u can save cron etc?
17:21:33 < panthera> if you use persistency (see manual), yes.
