hi

since i had a bit of trouble with usb drive detection and installing 11.04
ill post here my bios settings during setup:

how i created the usb drive:
using my 11.04 desktop i used an 8GB with default "startup disk creator" and a 32bit ubuntu server 11.04 iso image
so this step is pretty default, no changes on the usb drive have been made

installation on via artigo a1000:
plug in the usb drive and enter the bios during startup.
the settings i changed are


Advanced Bios ->
First Boot Device ->
USB-CDROM
LS120
Hard Disk
Advanced Bios ->
Boot Priority ->
1. Bootable Add-in Cards //<< this was on priority 2 before
2. CHO-M OCZ ONYX //<< that's the final installation hard drive i use
Integrated Peripherals ->
USB Settings ->
Mass Storage Settings ->
Flash Drive: HDD-Mode

note:
at this point booting from usb drive succeeded, which didn't before
but after the successfull installation and unplugging the usb drive the hard disk didn't boot
im not sure what i changed here, but it was only in the above settings
i think it was advanced bios -> boot priority -> // switching back the OCZ ONYX to priority 1.
and setting the boot order to first device -> Hard Disk


cheers
