My PC does not have the BIOS option to boot from USB.
I use an USB cabled external hard drive for taking backups. It has FreeBSD installed on it which I want to boot from so the motherboard cabled hard drive file systems are un-mounted during the dump. This USB drive will only be attached to do backups.
I also have a USB stick containing a Freebsd install used to clone itself to the motherboard cabled hard drive.
Since the BIOS will only boot from the motherboard cabled hard drive can I install a boot loader to gain boot access to my seldom connected USB devices?
I reviewed the grub port but with no joy. What do you recommend? _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
