Hi,
Here is my situation.
I have a machine which i have to test with a live version of ubuntu 9.10. I used a usb pendrive for some time but it failed after rebooting a few times.
Now i try to install a live version on a external HD of 160 GB. I installed the ubuntu 9.10 with unetbootin on the external HD.
When I boot from the HD I get the error: NTLDR is Missing.
Is it possible to install of load the ubuntu 9.10 version on a external HD. I found some stuff about
- using another USB stick with the live version and install from that USB to the external HD.
- using the live cd to install. But I don't have a CD drive on the machine.
Do anybody know if its possible? Or what i can do with de error?
Thanks,
Marrrriej
