insomnia07 Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 (edited) Hi! I came up with an idea to create universal bootable usb stick providing me all desired os to install a long time ago. I'm novice when it comes to a bootable pendrives field So I decided to inquire some indispensable information from experienced users of this forum.I'd like to include installers of: - Vista (all versions), - XP Home and Prof,- maybe Windows 7 (latest beta)And some useful utilities:- BartPE- Acronis Disk Director Suite- Acronis True ImageThere also should be a boot menu included just like inside multibootable DVD.Here are my questions:1. How can I do it?2. What pendrive do you recommand (brand, capacity)?Thank you in advance. Edited January 22, 2009 by insomnia07 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 (edited) Here are my questions:1. How can I do it?2. What pendrive do you recommand (brand, capacity)?Thank you in advance.Reading threads in this Forum and the help/docs within the USB_multiboot would seem to me a good start....If you want to have on it all the things you listed, a BIG one.Now, seriously, you are having an approach that I would define a bit "ambitious", you will need to start reading and experiment with just one OS, then try again with two, then try adding a PE, and so on.........about multiboot, the obvious answer is grub4dos:http://www.boot-land.net/forums/index.php?showforum=66(already part of the "Install XP from USB")...about hardware, a general "rule of the thumb" is that you get what you pay for, usually "top speed" sticks are the most expensive.jaclaz Edited January 22, 2009 by jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
