We (me and Doug MacLean) are trying to set up a 1 GB flash drive according to your instructions on http://feraga.com/node/94
We were successful up to Part XVII, Install grub. Here is the error message from attempting to install grub from outside the chroot jail:
amos:/home/doug# grub-install --recheck --root-directory=/mnt/buildroot /dev/sda
rm: cannot remove `/mnt/buildroot/boot/grub/device.map': Read-only file system
Could not find device for /mnt/buildroot/boot: Not found or not a block device.
We note that the mount stanza for the boot partition (/dev/sda1) mounts read-only, to wit:
UUID=b628f3e4-81d4-43da-8082-f17a8e926ae0 /boot ext2 defaults,noatime,ro 0 1
What are we missing? We also tried to find deb2flash in etch (testing) without success.
Thanks for the effort and we hope we can help achieve world domination one computer at a time.
