- <title>USB stick partitioning on &arch-title;</title>
-<para>
-
-We will show how to setup the memory stick to use the first partition,
-instead of the entire device.
-
-</para><note><para>
-
-Since most USB sticks come pre-configured with a single FAT16
-partition, you probably won't have to repartition or reformat the
-stick. If you have to do that anyway, use <command>cfdisk</command>
-or any other partitioning tool for creating a FAT16 partition and then
-create the filesystem using:
-
-<informalexample><screen>
-# mkdosfs /dev/<replaceable>sda1</replaceable>
-</screen></informalexample>
-
-Take care that you use the correct device name for your USB stick. The
-<command>mkdosfs</command> command is contained in the
-<classname>dosfstools</classname> Debian package.
-
-</para></note><para>
-
-In order to start the kernel after booting from the USB stick, we will
-put a boot loader on the stick. Although any boot loader
-(e.g. <command>LILO</command>) should work, it's convenient to use
-<command>SYSLINUX</command>, since it uses a FAT16 partition and can
-be reconfigured by just editing a text file. Any operating system
-which supports the FAT file system can be used to make changes to the
-configuration of the boot loader.
-
-</para><para>
-
-To put <command>SYSLINUX</command> on the FAT16 partition on your USB
-stick, install the <classname>syslinux</classname> and
-<classname>mtools</classname> packages on your system, and do:
-
-<informalexample><screen>
-# syslinux /dev/<replaceable>sda1</replaceable>
-</screen></informalexample>
-
-Again, take care that you use the correct device name. The partition
-must not be mounted when starting <command>SYSLINUX</command>. This
-procedure writes a boot sector to the partition and creates the file
-<filename>ldlinux.sys</filename> which contains the boot loader code.
-
-</para><para>
-
-Mount the partition (<userinput>mount /dev/sda1 /mnt</userinput>) and
-copy the following files from the Debian archives to the stick:
-
-<itemizedlist>
-<listitem><para>
-
-<filename>vmlinuz</filename> (kernel binary)
-
-</para></listitem>
-<listitem><para>
-
-<filename>initrd.gz</filename> (initial ramdisk image)
-
-</para></listitem>
-<listitem><para>
-
-<filename>syslinux.cfg</filename> (SYSLINUX configuration file)
-
-</para></listitem>
-<listitem><para>
-
-Optional kernel modules
-
-</para></listitem>
-</itemizedlist>
-
-If you want to rename the files, please note that
-<command>SYSLINUX</command> can only process DOS (8.3) file names.
-
-</para><para>
-
-The <filename>syslinux.cfg</filename> configuration file should
-contain the following two lines:
-
-<informalexample><screen>
-default vmlinuz
-append initrd=initrd.gz ramdisk_size=12000 root=/dev/ram rw
-</screen></informalexample>
-
-Please note that the <userinput>ramdisk_size</userinput> parameter
-may need to be increased, depending on the image you are booting.
