Fixed -- Howto update ldlinux.sys
Posted: 26 Mar 2012, 02:25
I want to update an USB stick that got 1.0rc1 on it to 1.2rc1...
All is fine, but the issue is /boot/syslinux/ldlinux.sys
Since the md5sum differs I want to also replace the old from 1.0rc1 with the one one from 1.2rc1.
The current running 1.2rc2 sits on sda2, the stick I want to update is sdb1:
I don't want for format / erase all files cause with a 2 GB stick, there is some more stuff on it, not only Porteus...
How to change the ldlinux.sys? I cannot delete it, I cannot chmod a+w it...
