- step-01: Find the device letter
You have to plug your USB stick while Windows is running. In the explorer, a new drive
letter will appear, and you can access the file of this USB stick. In this manual, we
will suppose your USB stick letter is E:. Don't forget to change this letter in the
commands if required.
- step-02: Copy files from the CDRom
Now, you have to copy the most important files from the CDRom. If you don't want to burn
the CDRom, you can read the files from the ISO file with utilities such as WinImage.
First, format the device. You will need about 80 MB. You have to copy several files:
- 1) Copy "sysrcd.dat" to the root of the device
- 2) Copy the "isolinux" directory to the root of the device
- 3) Copy files in the "isolinux" directory to the root of the device
- step-03: Make the disk bootable
Now, you have to make your stickt bootable with syslinux. You will have to run
this program from a prompt console (cmd.exe). Don't forget to change this letter
in the commands if required.
# syslinux E:
You can find the syslinux program on the CDRom. The Windows version is provided
as a ZIP archive.
