[QUOTE="BlindingLights, post: 243392, member: 15775"] Okay, I searched already, and couldn't find the answer here. I installed Ubuntu Linux on a USB Maxtor External drive successfully. The only problem is, when I went to reboot, I held down the option key to choose which drive to boot from, and my external wasn't mounted! What could I do? I was thinking of also possibly using the system preferences pane and selecting the external under "startup disk". Any other suggestions? [/QUOTE]
