NorthWood Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 Dear all, after finally having obtained a working self installing CD now I'm wondering if is possible to do the same with an external usb HDD, I mean: it's easy to put all the contents of a working unattended installation on an USB hard drive and then instruct the BIOS to boot from the HDD but which steps I have to follow so that everything works ? I guess it's not the same steps that we have to follow for an unattended CD...could someone advice? It could be useful so that I can save a lot of CDs/DVDs and maybe obtain a faster installation...Thanks
Astalavista Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 search for usb and install it has been discussed before.
NorthWood Posted February 21, 2005 Author Posted February 21, 2005 Searching on the forum I found this:http://www.weethet.nl/english/hardware_bootfromusbstick.phpI will try it, in the meantime there are other suggestion?Thanks
NorthWood Posted February 21, 2005 Author Posted February 21, 2005 Anyway the steps are referred to a FAT installation, how do I extract the boot bin for an NTFS installation?
NorthWood Posted February 21, 2005 Author Posted February 21, 2005 Sorry but what'Ive done since now doesn't work, I'm receiving an 'NTLDR is missing' error but I've already copied that file...could someone help me?
