Linux guru needed - A few hours here and there
"I am trying to install Ubuntu on to a 4 gb USB flash drive (not Live).
Ubuntu by default installs Grub as a bootloader. Grub can not read the USB
partition for some reason. I know the USB is bootable because I was able
to install DSL Linux with no problem but I had other driver problems and
decided to try Ubuntu.
After some research I found that I need to replace the Grub bootloader
with Extlinux bootloader, but Extlinux needs to be on a ext2 or ext3 file
system partition and the Ubuntu installer didn't set up the partitions
this way. I'm getting to a point where I'd rather pay someone to help me.
I believe a Linux guru who knows what he/she is doing can solve this.
There are a few other things I need help with including installing special
drivers and a couple basic custom scripts and cron jobs. Perhaps you can
help me get this project done (with or without Ubuntu). "
