-if copy iso on LiveUSB format in fat32 boot option live-media-path=/path.../casper won't run...
Casper can not find the squashfs

-and if possible you install lupin-casper in the ramdisk
same in the official versions of Ubuntu...

I don't understand ....you have only to clone the nbcaine2.0 dd image on an usb pendrive...and it'll work...what's wrong?
Thanks

Hello
on a multiboot LiveUSB
or it must boot via boot option live-media-path=/path.../casper
by copying the iso in a folder at the root of the USB
and with your casper modified, it does not work

or boot with the boot option iso-scan/filename=/xxx.iso
but this boot option requires that the package lupin-casper
installed in the ramdisk, and it is not the case

I ask this because some users want me to multiboot adds support for multiboot Caine
sorry my English is bad...

Cloned the nbcaine2.0.dd.001 to an USB flash memory stick with dd.
Boots and after the Ubuntu purple screen get thrown back to a minimal shell.

This is the error screen:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BusuBox v1.13.3 (Ubuntu 1:1.13.3-1ubuntu11) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

(initramfs) mount: mounting /dev/sda5 on /snap-backing failed: invalid argument
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also get boot screen saying:
boot:
After hitting <Enter> get menu with different booting options.

It's strange...because the nbcaine.dd.001 it's the image file of my pendrive and it works perfectly booting from my Samsung NC10 Netbook...did you check the MD5 of the dd file ?
Thanks
bye

Try to download now the NBCaine file (now it's a gz file) and let me know
Thanks

I am using YUMI multiboot to run Caine 3.0 ISO.

The default GRUB boot entry is:

Code:

# Modify the following entry if it does not boot
title Caine 3.0
find --set-root --ignore-floppies --ignore-cd /multiboot/ISOS/caine3.0.iso
map --heads=0 --sectors-per-track=0 /multiboot/ISOS/caine3.0.iso (hd32)
map --hook
chainloader (hd32)

The ISO boots, I get the Graphical CAINE loading screen. But receive this error:

Code:

Busybox v1.18.5 (Ubuntu 1:1.18.5-1ubuntu4) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

(initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system

How should I modify the boot commands?
I don't think the NBCaine dd file is what I want, since multiboot is not possible. I need multiboot.

I've heard Casper is to blame, but do I need to alter the ISO file at all?

Thanks.

You can try NBCaine 4.0 Beta
http://www.caine-live.net/Downloads/nbcaine4.0_b.iso
for your multiboot.

I am still getting the error with Caine 4.0 beta....

Busybox v1.18.5 (Ubuntu 1:1.18.5-1ubuntu4) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

(initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system

I still suspect that I need to add boot commands to the menu.lst of my MultiBoot USB drive.

Found a solution here...
http://reboot.pro/topic/17337-yumi-multiboot-usb-boot-blackbuntu-iso-via-grub4dos/

Basically, extracted ISO to its own folder within the 'multiboot' directory that was created with the YUMI multiboot tool when Ubuntu was installed.
And using the above forum topic as a guide. Although it was describing a boot problem with BlackBuntu 0.3... it was the same issue with the same error.
And since Caine is also Ubuntu based... the solution was the same.
*(don't forget to change the .lz file references to .gz also)
