I really need help. I downloaded the kolibri os to allow me to use a laptop that has no harddrive and no battery as a desktop station. Because it has no harddrive, I need to be able to connect a flash drive or external usb harddrive to it. Keep in mind I'm used to plug and play. When I connect usb devices to this laptop I have no idea how to mount them, read them, do anything with them. I don't even know if kolibri has the drivers for this type of thing or how to install drivers if needed. Please help me.

Hi! As for now, KolibriOS doesn't support hot-plug of USB sticks. May be they'll work if you plug them before you boot Kolibri.

Thanks for your reply. I also had the idea of loading files from a cd once I booted kolibri, but the cd rom drive just spins. It will not actually read the cd in the drive and I have no way of making it work. Do you know how I can at least get that to work?

Please, provide some more information about your PC and CD.
