| qwebirc99070 | I have an older pc AMD based tat will only boot from CD, is there a program that can span the ios file to two disks ?? | 19:13 |
|---|---|---|
| qwebirc99070 | Could you make available a CD ver of the ios ?? | 19:15 |
| tgm4883 | not that I know of | 19:15 |
| tgm4883 | Can't do that either, I'm not sure it would even be possible | 19:16 |
| tgm4883 | Can you burn it to a dvd? | 19:16 |
| qwebirc99070 | yes but the machine won't boot from it | 19:16 |
| tgm4883 | weird | 19:17 |
| tgm4883 | how old is this machine? | 19:17 |
| qwebirc99070 | abit AMD 3400 | 19:17 |
| Kwisher_wrk | qwebirc99070: check out plop bootloader, it will allow older pc's to boot from usb | 19:18 |
| qwebirc99070 | It will boot from usb but only floppy, zip, and a couply others | 19:19 |
| qwebirc99070 | I haven't tryed usb HD yet but I don't think it's supported | 19:20 |
| Kwisher_wrk | qwebirc99070: plop will make it possible to boot from a usb | 19:21 |
| Kwisher_wrk | if the pc will boot from a usb natively, what's the problem? | 19:21 |
| qwebirc99070 | I have the ios on a thumb drive, so I will give it a try | 19:21 |
| Kwisher_wrk | you have to create a bootable usb, not just copy the iso to it | 19:22 |
| qwebirc99070 | it's looking for a floppy drive not the thumb drive | 19:23 |
| qwebirc99070 | the thumb drive is bootable | 19:23 |
| Kwisher_wrk | you usually have to set the boot options in the bios or press a key to bring up a boot menu | 19:23 |
| qwebirc99070 | I used the pendrive app to make a bootable thumb drive | 19:24 |
| qwebirc99070 | done that | 19:24 |
| Kwisher_wrk | if all else fails, download the plop iso and burn it to cd and boot form it | 19:24 |
| qwebirc99070 | I'll try it, | 19:25 |
| qwebirc99070 | thanks | 19:25 |
