it depends on your computer's bios. its usually f2 or DEL or f12 or something at boot time, then there should be a setting in Boot options to look for the usb port or sometimes its seen as another hard drive. cant really be more specific, sorry.
some older machines don't boot from usb, in that case, check out the plop boot loader, you can put it on a CD or floppy and then choose USB to boot, it'll probably be really slow though, because on a computer that old its probably USB 1 On 12/9/11, Shawn Richard <[email protected]> wrote: > how do i make a usb drive boot puredyne > > > > ________________________________ > From: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Sent: Wednesday, December 7, 2011 12:00 PM > Subject: Puredyne Digest, Vol 79, Issue 5 > > Send Puredyne mailing list submissions to > [email protected] > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://lists.goto10.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/puredyne > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > [email protected] > > You can reach the person managing the list at > [email protected] > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Puredyne digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
