Have installed Zorin 9 lite from live cd onto a non-bootable SD Card.
I wish to use a small USB stick (1GB) to boot the system, recognize the SD Card,
and pass the boot to Zorin installed on a 32GB (speed 10) SD Card.
I will be using Windows on my desktop (windows 7 64bit)
to create the bootable USB (sda1).
The Zorin 9 lite root ( / ) 20GB is located at (mmcblk0p1).
Swap (2GB) is located at (mmcblk0p2).
After booting Zorin I wish to remove the USB stick.
The Laptop (Lenovo 3000 C200 - 2GB RAM) will not boot from the SD Card.
The HD controller is bad , so NO Hard Drive.
What small tool is best to use for booting the system and chain loading the SD Card?
Plop Boot Manager? Grub? other?
Looking for something quick & easy to understand for a newbie working in windows.
I require "detailed" instructions on creating the USB boot and
how to pass the boot to the SD Card once recognized.
