I have a special bootable "Linux" USB. Tested the USB and it boots up and builds any old PC - with an appropriate BIOS. I would like to convert this USB - better still its contents - to an ISO.
Reason? VMWare server doesn't support USB bootable BIOS at present. Not sure it ever will.
Does anyone know how I can obtain a DVD ISO or how to convert the CD ISO to DVD to make it bootable?

I know it can be done, but im not finding how exactly.
What ive tried so far. I've taken VBoxManage terminal tool and converted the VDI to a .img file, and tried to move that to my second physical disk, but it didnt work at all.
After some thinking, I booted to acronis true image within my virtual machine, and cloned the C:/ drive of windows over to my second hard drive. That got me further, but doesn't boot fully. Comes up to windows xp logo, and black screen boot loops.
Ive heard about using vditool to create a .raw file, and then go from there, but im at a loss to find vdi tool
How can i move my virtual machine to a physical, bootable partition on a second drive?
I have backup outlook.pst files on the non-bootable windows os partition. I can access these backups from the Ubuntu partition, but of course they aren't readable. I understand that one can use Mozilla's Thuderbird on Windows os to establish outlook exportable files for the Ubuntu client,but I don't have that option as my Windows os is not booting. I've found Ubuntu so dependable that I have no interest in attempting another expensive and lengthy recovery process of windows.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to create a bootable flash drive that will boot and install the slackware 13.0 distro, except that I need to be able to do it from a Windows system for a Linux install. Here's what the Linux version does(from a web page written by Eric Hameleers, who also wrote the script):
"This directory contains a script (create_multipartboot.sh) and several other files that will transform your USB stick into a bootable Slackware installer. The script creates an multi-partition image file (hence the script's filename), which you need to copy onto a USB stick.A (small) FAT partition contains the slackware setup program and the bootable code, while the rest of the available space will be used up by a 'ext2' formatted partition in which as much Slackware packages are stored as can fit."
I'm trying to use alien bobs usb wiki to make a bootable usb slack installer. the syslinux part was easy and worked fine but adding the package tree has proved a bit confusing, I was trying to use the cp and mv commands to get the immages from my slack 13 iso but I had stumbled accross a way of using the dd command and can't seem to find the information again.

I've been thinking about burning a bootable DVD containing a tarball of a freshly configured Slackware. If I mess up, I can phone my aunt and tell her to simply put the DVD inside the drive and press ctrl-alt-del. The DVD boots, un-tars (the fresh Slackware), ejects the CD-tray, waits for her to press Enter, closes the tray, and finaly reboots to my good old known fresh Slackware.
I have downloaded both the 32 bit and the 64bit version of slackware, I have a dual layer dvd and I was thinking to put both versions on one dvd! I just want to be able to choose which one to install with a simple menu. How can I do this?

They were legally ripped by me back in my windows days.
My question here is that before installing the multilib libraries, how does a 32 bit program differ from a 64 bit. For instance, and here I am showing my ignorance, but surely if I download a program source, shouldn't the resultant binary following compiling and building be a result of the platform it is built on, or does the source code include references to whether it is a 32 or 64 bit program.
Only asking as I have just gone to Slack13_x64, and was hoping that wine might build as a 64bit program. Or, am I stuck with having to install the multilib libs?
I tried to install AvamarClient on Slackware 11.0.0 kernel 2.6.24.3.. but i had some troubles. first i need convert the rpm packages to tgz, i did this with rpm2tgz and then install avamar software. when i running the "/usr/local/avamar/bin/avregister" script outputs are:

My Canon PowerShot A590IS digital camera records movies with a format of:
Stream #0.0: Video: mjpeg, yuvj422p, 640x480, 20 tbr, 20 tbn, 20 tbc
Stream #0.1: Audio: pcm_u8, 11024 Hz, mono, s16, 88 kb/s
For whatever reason, XBMC refuses to play the audio. Xine plays the audio but with a distressing static noise. MPlayer and Kaffeine play the files fine. The bottom line is XBMC and Xine seem to dislike pcm_u8 audio, or the way the audio is streamed with the video.I also cannot fast-forward the movies with some players, such as MPlayer or SMPlayer.
I haven't found whether I can select a different format with the camera, but to avoid player problems I'd like to convert the videos. My primary focus is playing in XBMC and Xine because I have both apps configured to be controlled with a remote control. What is the most compatible format to convert? This is with 12.2 or 13.0. I have ffmpeg, mplayer, and mencoder installed and probably all or most codecs I could use.
Modify the mass-convert.sh script to include the entire L and N series (seems a likely place to for the missing dependency to reside) then installpkg the resulting glut of packages.

I haven't tried it yet, but i'm going to. Heres the situation and tell me if I'm crazy.
I have several bootable CDs I use at work to do different things, so I went ahead and made a multi-boot usb stick with the isos on them and everything is golden. When i need something else, I am able to slap the ISO on the usb stick, edit the menu.lst and I'm good to go.
The problem is, for some of our equipment I have a bootable USB stick that I have to use. I tried copying the files on the bootable USB to my multi-boot usb and setup grub to boot it (which admittedly I'm no expert at), but have had no luck.
So now I'm thinking, I'll use dd to copy the bootable USB stick to an iso (using bs=2048) and then do my normal setup with an ISO and maybe it will work.
Everything is installed and setup on my system, but when I setup my partitions I chose my Windows partition to be bootable. Can I just use cfdisk to toggle the bootable flag so my linux partition is bootable and rewrite the partition table?

I have Ubuntu 9.04 and just installed Sound Converter. I am trying to convert a bunch of .ogg files to mp3 to play on my iPod and it's not working so well. In the Sound Converter options I have is set to convert to high quality mp3. I choose the folder that the files are in and after a moment (slow laptop) Sound Converter populates, I hit 'convert' and it shows that the conversion completes in two seconds. All that it did was create the new folder structure of artist/album but there is nothing in there. Not sure what I am missing. I used Sound Converter before and it worked fine.

I have a lot of .flac files downloaded from several sites. Most of them come with a .cue file, and the .jpg with the cover, etc. It seems it is the intention of the uploader that one rebuilds the original CDDA. However, if I had a stand-alone CD/DVD player with flac I would hardly see the point of converting the flac to cdda. Furthermore, I could even play the flacs with a software player although, in this case, the audio quality would not be so good due to the noise picked up by the signal from the PC digital circuits.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have created a bootable USB with PowerISO in Windows 8, and the device is now booting. Why any of the solutions below creates a bootable ISO correctly? I would like to know what to do in case I have to create a bootable ISO again, but without using Windows. I have been searching about this, but I couldn't manage to find the solution.
System: ASUS laptop, Debian 7.8 Wheezy, Secure Boot disabled, Fast Boot disabled..I'm trying to create a bootable USB from an ISO image. The ISO image is PelicanHPC, a Debian-live based clustering distro, to create a home cluster with some computers just to try how it works.I have tried several ways of creating the bootable USB.
* Unetbootin
The Unetbootin loader is showing Default but when I press ENTER it will only show the same loader, not loading the kernel.
* dd and cp
I have tried dd standalone, and also as I could see in other websites, using isohybrid first on the ISO. I have tried setting/not setting as bootable partition /dev/sdb1 in fdisk. Using default bs and bs=4M too, without success.
I have tried running cp isoimage.iso /dev/sdb1, without success booting.
Then I tried booting the ISO image without USB from the local hard disk.
* grub-imageboot
Adding the ISO image to /boot/images and then running update-grub, but then, it won't boot, it keeps loading for a long time, 15 minutes, showing the splash image of the default grub (Debian's bootloader). I could read in the docs that it does not boot every ISO images.
* adding manually a menu entry to GRUB
I have created a loopback to the iso file and then loading the kernel (linux and initrd.img). This way, it loaded correctly, but when loading the system, an error message was displayed (unable to mount aufs on /root: No such directory) then kernel panic. A shell is prompted, if I do ls, it will display several directories, /root among them.
In boot.log there are 2 messages:
[code]....
I will try now the Unetbootin version from another computer that's running Debian 8 Jessie. There is not any unetbootin package in Debian 8 Jessie.
PelicanHPC is not too old distro, it dates from late 2013.Booting the ISO in a QEMU virtual machine boots and functions correctly, I even created a new virtual machine that boots from PXE and add a node to the master system.
