Creating a USB boot image for LabviewRT

I have installed Labview 8.2 and the "update 8.2.1" for Labview RT Standard version from the web.
I am trying to create a bootable image for a target Laptop PC, using a USB jump drive.
When I run NI-MAX and select TOOLS->RT Disk Utilities->Create Desktop PC Utility USB Drive, a popup dialog appears that says:
   "This utility will reformat a USB drive with a Labview Real-Time boot USB utility for use with a USB boot-capable Desktop PC. Make sure the USB drive is connected to your computer before you continue.
    Do you want to use this utility?"
Clicking on Yes, shows a dialog selection window, with a single entry ="Version 8.2", and an OK and Cancel button.
Selecting the OK button, shows an error popup titled: Measurement & Automation Explorer" with text="Unable to detect USB drives"
The jump drive is 32MB and is visible in WINDOWS Explorer.
WHY will NI-MAX not see or use this jump-drive ?
( I have tried two different jump drives from two different manufacturers)

Hello,
Does your jump drive conform to the USB Mass Storage Device Class?  What drive letter are you using?  Did you create it by running the command line utility "subst"?
Have you tried doing this on a different computer?  Are the USB ports 1.1 or 2.0?

    Enyone know how to get USB stick back to normal after creating a USB boot disk for Mavericks? https://discussions.apple.com/message/23527458#23527458

    You should just be able to erase it using Disk Utiilty. I did with my 8Gb.
    If not I have a USB deep format tool, but it only works with Windows: http://tinyurl.com/mwor6s9
    You can download that and unzip it, then run it on a PC to fully erase and format the flash drive. Format it in FAT, and then the Mac will read and mount it so you cna once again format it with HFS extended for Mac use.

  • Problems with creating a USB boot device for Windows 8.1

    My iMac (late 2012) running OSX Mavericks is encountering problems creating a Windows 8.1 install disk via a USB thumbdrive. The drive has 8gb of space available, which is enough to fit windows. But when I choose my ISO image and select the drive I recieve an error message. The error is 'Bootcamp only supports 64-bit Windows installation on this platform. Please use a ISO file for 64-bit Windows installation.
    I'm certain this ISO definately contains 64-bit, so I'm slightly confused.
    I've followed instructions found in other discussions talking about adding an extra line of information to 'info.plist' found inside the Package Contents for bootcamp, but that has also not worked. If I try that, Bootcamp crashes upon being clicked every time.
    Any help is appreciated

    First up: a question. How did you fix the crashing Bootcamp Utility? It would help out this guy: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23523783?ac_cid=tw123456#23523783
    Next up: A possible solution (also posted here:https://discussions.apple.com/message/23523783?ac_cid=tw123456#23523783)
    =====================
    It's possible you have a Windows ISO for both 32- and 64-bit. In this case it's probably detecting the presence of the 32-bit installer and forgets to look for another 64-bit version.
    A way to work around this is to not use the Bootcamp Assistant utility by following the listed steps:
    The way installing Windows should work either way using the Legacy BIOS mode:
    - Get a Windows ISO or DVD and copy the contents over to a freshly fat32 formatted USB stick of at least 4GB.
    - Download the Apple Bootcamp Support Software (4.x or 5.x, 5.x only supports 64-bit, get that if you are going 64-bit);
    - Copy the content of the Support Software folder over the the same USB stick from the first step. It should fit just right (it did on my 4GB stick with 2MB te spare!);
    - Use disk utility to partition your disk. Make sure the partition for Windows is Fat32 and at least 30GB;
    - Reboot your machine while holding Option/Alt at the chime;
    - You should be able to select either your OSX HDD or your USB stick labeled "Windows" -> Select Windows and press enter or click the arrow;
    - The Windows installer should now load, format the previously made Windows partition to NTFS;
    - Continue on your way.
    Can you try what I typed above? If it doesn't work, can you let me know at what step things go differently than described?
    Edit: This is based on the logical conclusion that any Mac that was shipped without ODD should be able to boot from USB.
    Edit2:
    One other note is that Mac's have trouble booting from USB when multiple USB storage devices are attached. So make sure you connect only one storage device.
    =====================
    Best of luck to you!

  • Creating a custom boot image for Mavericks

    Hello Apple Community!
    I realize that this question might have been asked a few times already, but I found nothing using the search function (nothing that satisfied me, that is).
    My task is simple: We have several different Macs at the office (Mostly MacBook Airs and Pros, some iMacs too) and whenever a new employee join us, I need to install all the software for that person. That is a bit of a cumbersome and repetitive process, so I wanted to know if and how it would be possible to create custom, universally working (i.e. on all different models that we're using at our institute) disk images that contain all the preinstalled software packages that we're using....
    We are using Mavericks ATM, but we will migrate to Yosemite eventually (though not until I stop hearing people complain about Yosemite's apparent random bugs).
    Is there a guide to this somewhere? Would someone please point out where I could find such information?
    Thank you guys.

    I created my own simply by installing OS X on an external USB drive then booting into that drive, setting up just an Administrator account, installing all the software I needed and set it aside.
    If I ever need to reinstall OS X, I boot into the USB's Recovery HD and run Disk Utility's Restore function pointing my Source to the USB drive and Destination to the Mac's internal drive.

  • How do i create a usb boot drive for OS X Lion 10.7.5

    How do I create a bootable USB drive on a working iMac with OS X Lion 10.7.5?  I'm fairly new to the MAC world...

  • How to create a Lion boot disk for Lion on a MBPRD?

    I have a unique version of Lion on my MBPRD.  How do I create a Lion Boot Disk for this unique version?

    Why is it a Unique version of Lion? The only versions of Lion are ones for older Macs, Before the Mid 2012 models came out, and a version that includes the newer drivers for the newest model Macs, Current shipping Mid 2012 models.
    If you are talking about a version for the new Mid 2012 models then you will need to wait for Apple to update their Lion Download servers because right now they do not have the newest Lion version available on those servers.

  • Can I create an external boot drive for an updated Mac OS Maverick system?

    I'm currently running Mac OS Snow Leopard (10.6.8) on my 24" iMac and would like to clone my current drive to an external drive & then update that external drive to Mac OS Maverick. First, can this be done to create an external Boot drive for my iMac System? Secondly, can I then select the internal system (OS 10.6.8) or the external drive Maverick OS system at boot time?

    Probably will depend on just what your machine is - i.e. how current and fast is the internal hardware.
    Generally though, the performance booting off a firewire 800 should be fine for most things with little if any system lag.  My late-2008 MBP ( 2.53Ghz core-2 duo, 8GB RAM) runs quite well when booted from a firewire 800 drive (7200rpm - even my 5400rpm portable clone is perfectly useable).
    Just remember if using the external for a long or serious work session, if the power goes out, that external is not going to be powered off battery (I keep my full size external drives plugged into a UPS because of that).

  • Boot image for SRW2024

    Hi,
    Where can i download boot images for SRW2024?
    Is it correct that i have to upgrade the boot image to install the 1.2.2 firmware?

    You may not download boot images, they are only available through the SBSC. You will not require one. What you will need to be careful of is "a" and "b" versions. If by chance you have flashed the wrong version, you may use the xmodem procedure posted here to upload the correct one.

  • Boot image for SUP720/MSFC3

    I had a dig around today on the software center but could not find a boot image for this blade, does such a thing exist? Would prefer a 12.2 image if possible...

    There is no boot image for the MSFC3 for either Hybrid or Sup720's Native IOS.

  • Boot images for SCCM12r2 from an NAS

    Hello,
    Is it possible to boot images from an distribution point installed on an NAS ?
    I have my SCCM (2012 R2) server and DC (2012 R2) in an Data Center. An office (in another location) in this domain and same ip subnet have a slow line-connection to the datacenter. In the office we gonna use the pxe server (sccm) to boot
    images for new clients. I want a solution to avoid transferring the OS Images/packages over this slow line-connection. It is not allowed to put server hardware in the office. In the office they have a NAS, with they use to transfer big files.
    Hence when an new client press F12 to install or reinstall an image, this one must be transferred from the NAS in the office and not from the SCCM server over the slow line-connection.
    Is this possible ? So yes, please let me know how to do this.
    Thanks a million.

    The situation is as follows:
    - We have a SCCM server in a datacenter
    - Our NAS (without SCCM supported OS installed) is at the client location on which our OS images are stored
    If we decide to push an OS Image via SCCM to a client at the same location as the NAS.
    Does the OS Image travel directly from the NAS to the client or does the OS Image go to SCCM first and then back to the client?
    We ask this question because if the OS image has to be uploaded from the NAS to the SCCM server and then downloaded again by the client completely destroys the internet speed.

  • Boot image for Solaris 8 x86?

    Does anyone know where I can download the image for the boot floppy for Solaris 8 x86?
    Mine got corrupted, and since System Commander 2000 doesn't recognize the partition, that and the CD are the only ways I can boot the system.
    Thanks in advance,

    Are you considering any particular cards ?
    I have had good luck with DEC21040 (10baseT) and DEC21140 (100baseT) cards
    in Solaris 7 through Solaris 10 on x86.
    The same can be said for 3Com 3C905C-TX cards.
    Solaris 8x86 will recognize many chipsets natively,
    and a number of third party developers have created working driver packages.
    Most of their driver packages are free, but a few are not free.
    Solaris 9 works with a few more, and Solaris 10 works with yet more adapters.
    The Solaris 8x86 HCL list has the native cards.
    This other Sun web page can direct you toward 3rd party sites.

  • USB Boot support for K7N420 Pro???

    Would it be possible for the BIOS release to include USB Boot support?
    This way you could use a lot of bootable USB peripherals (USB Flash DIsk for example) and you wouldn't need your FDD anymore.
    Can this be done?
    Best regards,
    Pulsar

    newer boards have begun to incorporate this bios feature.

  • How to Create lion os x Image for netrestore in mountain lion server

    System Image Utility only makes images of the system it ships with.
    In order to make Lion images, you'll need to install the Server Admin Tools for Lion onto a Lion system. You will then find the appropriate System Image Utility in /Applications/Server/.
