xnoxI got virt-manager to boot of usb-stick created with usb-creator =)))) Whoop =)))) also got Windows VM running in virt-manager (thanks for XP license from GSoC)11:09
evnice11:26
evGoogle gave you one for free, or you bought one with funding from GSoC?11:27
evxnox: I'm assuming this using the USB disk as a hard drive in kvm/virt-manager?  Do note that alternate CDs will not work when used in that way as debian-installer scans the USB bus for install sources (look for try-usb in the cdrom-detect source if you're curious).11:29
xnoxev, yes, I made my host /dev/sdc to become /dev/sda in the VM and boot from that11:30
xnoxev, I saw the blog-post from lucas about this and I will took into debian-installer code11:31

cndI've got a system that didn't install properly because the live usb was /dev/sda and the HD was /dev/sdb during installation22:18
cndit seems everything is fine except grub didn't get installed to /dev/sdb22:19
cndI tried installing grub: sudo grub-install /dev/sdb, but it didn't help22:19
cndany ideas?22:19
cndcjwatson: ^^?22:19
shtylmancnd: does it not boot? ... can you just run the install again and select /dev/sdb during the final step by using the advanced dialog?22:36
cndshtylman: it boots when I use my live usb, because the live usb says root is (hd1,1), but that turns out to be my HD22:37
shtylmanwhat do you mean when you use your live usb? use the live usb to boot from first HD?22:39
shtylmancan you boot into the installed system at all?22:40
cndshtylman: sorry for the delay, I've installed to the HD, which boots as (hd1,1) in grub and /dev/sdb in linux when the usb stick is plugged in23:19
cndso when I boot from the usb stick, it boots from (hd1,1) thinking that is itself, when in reality it is the HD23:19
cndso I can boot to ubuntu on the HD, but only by booting through the usb stick grub23:20
