Bootable USB drive holding files for WIN Install and FDISK and FORMAT
Posted by jm7 on January 24th, 2008


I am trying to create a WINBoot USB drive containing the i386 folder from
the XP pro CD and files to FDISK and Format.


I have used Physdiskwrite and a WINBOOT image (*.IMA) but these emulate
floppies so I can't place files that take up more than 512Mb or a 1gb size.

Is there a .IMA file (bootable) that is bigger than a floppy?

This one's a lot easier. Just boot from a Windows 98 EBD, and format
/s the USB flash drive.
