    Thumbs down Re: Trying to create multi "Live CD" USB myself

    I changed code from
    Code:
    menuentry "ubuntu-13.04-desktop-i386.iso" { 
    search --set -f "/ubuntu-13.04-desktop-i386.iso" 
    loopback loop "/ubuntu-13.04-desktop-i386.iso" 
    linux (loop)/casper/vmlinuz root=UUID=12E3-3D48 debian-installer/language=en keyboard-configuration/layoutcode=lv keyboard-configuration/variantcode=apostrophe iso-scan/filename=/ubuntu-13.04-desktop-i386.iso boot=casper file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed noprompt quiet splash -- 
    initrd (loop)/casper/initrd.lz 
    }
    Note: This is only fragment of code, I posted full code #7

    to this:
    Code:
    menuentry “Ubuntu 13.04” {
    set isofile=”/ubuntu-13.04-desktop-i386.iso”
    loopback loop $isofile
    inux (loop)/casper/vmlinuz boot=casper iso-scan/filename=$isofile quiet splash noprompt --
    initrd (loop)/casper/initrd.lz
    }
    I got this when tried to start Ubuntu --->


    Any ideas?

    Yup you would of had to format it to fat32 if you were using Sardu.
    Last time I used it, it didn't have an option for Arch but I was using an old version anyway to get hirens boot cd. You can add any live ISO on to it but if there isn't a specific option for it you would have to edit the grub cfg yourself and add the ISO to the 'extra' folder.

    I'm not using Sardu, I'm using MultiSystem.

    Re: Trying to create multi "Live CD" USB myself

    I tried copying your boot stanza. But had multiple issues.

    You are missing the L on the Linux line.
    Your quotes are not correct. What editor did you use. You seem to have left & right " where only a standard " works. When I loaded with your quotes I got weird characters in grub. Better to use gedit. Are you in English or is your language or editor including special characters to get separate left & right quote?

    You have good eyes, oldfred, to find those quotes

    Question Re: Trying to create multi "Live CD" USB myself

    Ah missed that, sudodus. Well, it didn't change much. 2nd line in last picture changes to:
    error: disk 'loop' not found.

    Your quotes are not correct. What editor did you use. You seem to have left & right " where only a standard " works.
    grub.cfg file was opened with gedit. Default text editor. I'm not sure I understand what you mean "Your quotes are not correct." Which quotes specifically?
    Bolded text really confuses me... Can you explain in more detail..?

    Code:
    $ ascii
    Usage: ascii [-dxohv] [-t] [char-alias...]
       -t = one-line output  -d = Decimal table  -o = octal table  -x = hex table
       -h = This help screen -v = version information
    Prints all aliases of an ASCII character. Args may be chars, C \-escapes,

    Use the red one. You can probably copy and paste it from the table.

    Re: Trying to create multi "Live CD" USB myself

    I did not see quote issue until I tried booting with that stanza. And then grub gave really weird characters as it read them differently somehow.

    This worked but I only have 64bit so I edited that. And I have to have nomodeset to boot.

    Code:
    menuentry "Ubuntu 13.04" {
    set isofile="/ubuntu-13.04-desktop-amd64.iso"
    loopback loop $isofile
    linux (loop)/casper/vmlinuz boot=casper iso-scan/filename=$isofile nomodeset 
    initrd (loop)/casper/initrd.lz
    }
    You can copy this back and change from AMD64 to i386. Only if you have video issues may you need nomodeset. I have nVidia and cannot boot anything without nomodeset until I install nVidia drivers.

    sorry I miss-read install multisystem in your other post as what you were still trying to do - not a program.
