Adrien Cunin eaff3e1b8c Reference git.o.o DevStack repo rather than GitHub
In docs, use git.o.o URLs rather than GitHub URLs for the DevStack repo,
and don't mention GitHub when git.o.o is more appropriate.
Also, replaced GitHub logo with Git logo in quickstart.png.

<h1>USB Boot: Undoable Stack Boot</h1>
<p>Boot DevStack from a USB disk into a RAM disk.</p>

<h2>Prerequisites</h2>
</div>
<h3>Hardware</h3>
<p>This guide covers the creation of a bootable USB drive. Your
computer BIOS must support booting from USB and You will want at least 3GB of
RAM. You also will need a USB drive of at least 2GB.</p>
<h3>Software</h3>
<p>Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot) is required on host to create images.</p>
</section>
<section id="installation">

<h2>Installation <small>bit blasting</small></h2>
</div>
<h3>Set Up USB Drive</h3>
<ul>
<li>Insert the USB drive into the computer. Make a note of the device name, such as
<code>sdb</code>. Do not mount the device.</li>
<li>Install the boot system:
<pre>tools/build_usb_boot.sh /dev/sdb1</pre>
<p>This calls tools/build_ramdisk.sh to create a 2GB ramdisk
containing a complete development Oneiric OS plus the
OpenStack code checkouts. It then writes a syslinux boot sector
to the specified device and creates <code>/syslinux</code>.</p>
</li>
<li>If desired, you may now mount the device:
<pre>mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/tmp
# foo
umount /mnt/tmp</pre>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Now <a href="ramdisk.html">return</a> to the RAM disk Guide to kick
off your DevStack experience.</p>
