How to boot Legacy OS using easy2boot?
usb boot of legacy
I don't know anything about easy2boot. So I don't know if the inclusions in your boot parameter of "/usbhd" and ",usbcard" make any sense.
If you formatted your USB-key as Linux Ext4, Legacy wouldn't be able to read anything on it.
No other ideas. Sorry.
Edit: On second thought, perhaps knowing the arguments which work under Grub4Dos might help you. See here: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 817#767020
If not, please provide your entire boot arguments. Perhaps knowing how Easy2boot handles other Pups would help use figure out why the arguments for Legacy don't work.
Alternatively, perhaps you should consider using Grub4dos instead. With very few exceptions, my experience has been that the simple install of Grub4dos generated a menu.lst properly identifying the boot arguments required by Puppies, Windows, and almost all Linux Distros. One exception was Manjaro. I'm uncertain about Legacy, so see above.
