After
fasting for the restoration of flash drives , it appears that there are
now many workers abandoned the stick , which is required use . Why not make them bootable flash drive with the OS required distributions ? This
can be great useful during installation / reinstallation of operating
systems for netbooks , where there are no optical media drives . And sometimes it may even speed up the installation process and make it much quieter on the computer where the drive is.Although
Habré already described options for creating bootable flash drives ,
but an option that I suggest - too simple and its versatile to ignore it
.
To create a bootable USB drive we need utility WinSetupFromUSB, the latest version which can be downloaded here. Update utility author puts in the appropriate forum thread on the site msfn.org. At the moment there is a stable version, dated July 2009 and there is enough fresh, sixth beta-version, which is collected in March this year. Program looks as follows:
After starting the program will attempt to identify all of the stick connected to the computer.
Making a bootable USB flash drive
For this program there are two ways: Bootice and RMPrepUSB. Easier and more intuitive to me appeared first, we will use them. After clicking Bootice, we need to select Perform Format:
В следующем окне можно выбрать разделы или отформатировать для загрузочных нужд всю флешку. Я выбрал вариант USB-HDD Mode (Single Partition) и нажал на Next Step:
In the next window, we propose to choose our flash drive file system and partition label . I recommend using NTFS, because it often increases the reading speed with flash. After clicking OK , the utility several times warned us that in the process of creating a bootable USB drive , all the information from it will be removed . Since we are going to voluntarily take that step - agree. Not long after the action , the utility will tell us more likely the success of our operations and the boot flash is ready !Copy the installation files OSThe next step is to copy the installation of the operating system on our bootable USB flash drive . All we need to do is select the main program window operating system that we want to put on a flash drive and specify the drive with the OS or directory unpacked ISO- image. Click on the GO button and wait about 10-15 minutes ( depends on the volume of data to be copied from the speed and the stick ) . If you love to watch all the actions before starting the process put a " tick" next to Show Log.After a successful operation , you can immediately test their creation by booting from a USB drive . If you did everything correctly, the boot loader screen GRUB4DOS:
lastly
You can experiment with the settings utility as it provides ample opportunities for creating bootable flash drive. Complete description of all features, you can find the same topic the author of the program.
