I was wondering if anyone has tried to follow the tutorial using BTR5 R2?. The file contents of /etc/fstab has changed from BTR5 R1 and not sure what to add and or edit.

I watched the episode again but this time with less red bull and vodka as my choice beverage and everything worked out ok thank you all for your help.

I upgraded to R2 from inside my R1 install, so have not done a fresh install yet. I wouldn't expect the contents of /etc/fstab to be an issue, though.

I'm running BT5R2 installed that way, only thing that really needs to change is the one for /boot. Just remove the UUID and put /dev/sdb1 in it's place.

The /etc/fstab editing is covered in the episode :]

Thanks for the episode, great instructions, worked a treat and with no problems.

 

Just a couple of N00b questions.

 

What happens if i lose the usb key or it stops working ? Do i need to back this key up somehow and if so what is the best way.

 

Also a stupid question I am sure, if you are deriving the key each time then can anyone do it if they had access to that key or they would need to know the offset, which could be computed in no time I am assuming ? especially if like in the example choosing 32 which is near the beginning ?

 

Sorry for resurrecting an old thread, thanks in advance.
