Re: Fwd: Restoring from Bootable USB can't find config file/archives

This is the directory listing of my bootable USB stick that I created
using:
http://trac.mondorescue.org/wiki/FAQ#Q42HowtotransformamondoCDDVDintoamondoUSBdevice

>From some of the messaging I see scroll by It seems like it is looking for
an ISO not the actual files when using compare usb=/dev/sdc

Does this make sense?

It is my understanding that the procedure I pulled from the FAQ link above
created a bootable USB with all of the content to perform a restore using
only this USB stick, is that correct?

Thanx alot!
