I'm trying to boot from my USB-Stick. I have an CF-USB adapter 512MB and a 4GB Stick. Both have the same problem. After an grml2usb my Genode-System won't boot. So I mad it with Grub.
What does "won't boot" mean? Your box(es) can't boot using isolinux/syslinux but grub works?
Exectly. Syslinux doesn't work. And grub is doing the job.. My laptop have also problems with syslinux... but that's an other story.
Ok.
Try dropping the 'root (hd0,0)' line and the root=/dev/sda1 kernel-option of the 'Grml minitrd' section in your menu.lst, AFAICS your system tries to boot from /dev/sda1 currently. :)
Sorry, I don't understand that. Should I remove the 'root (hd0,0)' section and the 'root=/dev/sda1' ?? How should this look like?? Sorry, everything that I emagine, couldn't work.
Assuming that the kernel (named vmlinuz here, known as linux26 on the live-cd) and grml's initrd (named minirt26.gz here and on the live-cd) are available in the boot-directory of your usb-stick try the following menu.lst entry:
title Grml minirt kernel /boot/vmlinuz ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=us usb apm=power-off vga=791 initrd=minirt26.gz nomce initrd /boot/minirt26.gz boot
