kyor Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 (edited) Is it possible to insert a mass storage device with the F6 key when PE boots over a ramdisk ?I cannot see any 'press F6 key' during boot up. It only shows 'loading ramdisk'greetz kyor Edited April 20, 2006 by kyor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albuquerque Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 It does, but it's just really fast. When Ramdisk finishes loading, there's another progress bar thereafter. You can VERY QUICKLY hit the F6 key when that second progress bar shows up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisBaksa Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 (edited) Exactly what he said. The "Loading Ramdisk" is the tftp download of the iso image. PE starts to load immediatly after that. Thats when you press the F6.FYI... There is a hotfix from MS (which is just a new Startrom.com) to fix an issue with AMD based systems (especially IBM Blades) where the image downloads but bluescreeens upon loading or throws an error about setup on a black background. It's a timing issue on the new hardware.Chris Edited April 21, 2006 by ChrisBaksa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
