vbalbert Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 I'm trying to create a PE boot disk for Windows 7 on a 2 GB SD flash drive. My BIOS allows me to boot from my card reader (and in fact hangs during the boot process if I have a card in the reader) so that's not a problem. What I don't seem to find is a way to make the card bootable. Can anybody point me to where I can find out how to do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perpetuations Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Ultra ISO can write the ISO file in the flash drive.If the iso files is bootable you can use the SD flash drive to boot.Some PE has the programe to install in the flash drive to boot.

jaclaz Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Please do understand that you are mixing TWO different problems:actually "making the SD bootable"actually booting a Windows 7 based PE (PE 3.x) from itThey are NOT the same thing.#1 is relatively easy and there are a number of ways to achieve that.#2 is relatively difficult and AFAIK has not yet been documentedHere you have a start:http://www.911cd.net/forums//index.php?showtopic=20314jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdob Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 My BIOS allows me to boot from my card readerWhich hardware do you use?Does BIOS approach SD card as a hard disk?Did you tried generic PE boot?http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc766092(WS.10).aspxWhich windows driver is used at SD reader? Does your windows use sdbus.sys, sffdisk.sys and sffp_sd.sys?Did you apply KB976092? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976092/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
