安装grub到U盘

失败案例

将U盘分为1个区，文件系统格式为vfat格式

1、查看计算机存储设备信息

[root@localhost ~]# fdisk -l
...
Disk /dev/sdb: 4008 MB, 4008706048 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 487 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdb4   *           1         488     3914689    c  W95 FAT32 (LBA)
Partition 4 has different physical/logical endings:
     phys=(486, 254, 63) logical=(487, 91, 53)

[root@localhost ~]# ls /dev/sd* | grep "sdb"
/dev/sdb
/dev/sdb4

这里U盘是/dev/sdb，只有一个分区/dev/sdb4

2、给U盘分区

[root@localhost ~]# fdisk /dev/sdb

Command (m for help): m
Command action
   a   toggle a bootable flag
   b   edit bsd disklabel
   c   toggle the dos compatibility flag
   d   delete a partition
   l   list known partition types
   m   print this menu
   n   add a new partition
   o   create a new empty DOS partition table
   p   print the partition table
   q   quit without saving changes
   s   create a new empty Sun disklabel
   t   change a partition's system id
   u   change display/entry units
   v   verify the partition table
   w   write table to disk and exit

Command (m for help): w        # 提交修改并退出
The partition table has been altered!
