cnnx | hello all | 23:38 |
cnnx | I'm trying to make a bootable ssd drive that's ready to use, I can't find a way.. I tried with unetbootin but when asked to select my drive it only allows c:\ my ssd is on E:\ | 23:38 |
cnnx | something I can use with dd if=... maybe? | 23:39 |
arraybolt3 | cnnx: What you probably want to do is flash Xubuntu to a USB drive and then install it to the external SSD. | 23:46 |
arraybolt3 | cnnx: You can flash Xubuntu to a USB drive using balenaEtcher (that's what I'd use anyway). | 23:46 |
cnnx | I tried that | 23:46 |
arraybolt3 | cnnx: What went wrong? | 23:46 |
cnnx | but my mothoard shutdowns almost at the end of the install | 23:46 |
cnnx | its a robot motherboard | 23:47 |
cnnx | runs on battery | 23:47 |
arraybolt3 | cnnx: Oh... I see. | 23:47 |
arraybolt3 | cnnx: In that instance, perhaps you can install Xubuntu into a virtual machine with a raw disk image that's almost the same size as your motherboard's disk, then use dd to flash the preinstalled image to the SSD? | 23:47 |
