[Cbe-oss-dev] On petitboot

[Jiafu Gao]

Recently I install Intrepid Ubuntu (daily build), and then petitboot. Petitboot works great:

1) I like the gui. Simple, intuitive and elegant.
2) It finds systems on CD, USB flash, hard disks
3) I have two installed linux on PS3 hard disk (in different partitions of course). I can boot successfully using petitboot. Without petitboot, I can only boot the last one I installed. 
4) I can select install from LiveCD in CD or USB flash. Install from LiveCD succeeded. However, when I copied the same files from the CD to a USB flash, petitboot load the installer fine, but soon the installer tries to mount the CD (I guess before read/copy install files from it). Without much understanding about the installer, I would think it is the installer that make the assumption that we are installing from CD although in this case, we are installing from USB flash. Am I right? If so, I need work with Ubuntu installer to fix this issue, right?

Anyway, petitboot works really great. Thanks for the good work!
