I created a Centos Live 5.4 Bootable USB drive. I used this to install Centos on a HP Netbook.
When the system goes to write the Grub boot loader to disk, it wants to write the boot loader to the usb drive (/dev/sda), not the hard disk (/dev/hda). I do have the option of writing the boot loader to /dev/hda, (not to the mbr!) but when I reboot I get an load error and the Grub prompt.
How can I get Centos booting from the hard disk instead of using the USB key.
