Kilosnot much09:21
magespawnhey Vince-0 , Kilos , mazal 09:21
mazalLo magespawn , Kilos , Vince-0 09:24
mazalWhat would you guys suggest is the best format for a boot usb , ext3 or fat32 ?09:42
mazalGonna take an iso to usb09:42
Kiloshmm10:00
Kilosmazal, look at makebootfat in synaptic10:01
Kilosforget what all it say10:01
mazalI'm somme using startup disc creator , but dunno what is best to format the usb too before beginning10:03
Kilosjust delete stuff off it10:05
Kilosi think fat32 was it otherwise other pcs dont see it10:06
magespawndepends on what os you want to use the disk with ext file systems are linux only10:14
Kilosdoesnt disk creator dlete them anyway10:15
Kilosdelete10:15
mazalIt's an ubuntu iso magespawn 10:16
magespawnyes that is not too seriouse but if you want to use it on windows machines it has to be fat32 or ntfs10:17
magespawna startup disk creates its own file system, a startup can be used to run a pc in case of hard drive problems10:18
mazalThat's idea yeah. Want it to boot in case of emergency to copy files of from the pc's hard drive. I am making it to use instead of a cd10:20
magespawni run a laptop without a hd completly from a flash drive startup disk10:20
magespawnthen the startup disk creator takes care of that for you10:20
mazalk thanx10:21
magespawnis actually pretty cool, cause you can carry a fully functional os on a flash drive, you can then work from any hardware10:22
