Haven't moved the 2.1 over but it should be trivial. You need to create two partitions, a small DOS partition to hold the syslinux stuff and a larger ext2 partition to hold the singularity. Then you need to make some small changes to the start-up script so it mounts the ext2 partition and looks for the singularity file in the correct place (i.e. on the IDE drive instead of the CD-ROM). I haven't a chance to write this up yet but hope to "real soon now". If the above isn't enough to get you started then email me privately and I'll send you more info. g.
