  • Installation with an usb stick

    Hi folks,
    I've a problem to install Arch on my IBM Thinkpad X31. The X31 has no drive inside (expect the hdd of course) and I have no external one. But i've a bootable USB Stick with 64mb.
    But the problem is that I don't really know what to do to get the install files of Arch to work from the USB Stick. The X31 can boot from usb.
    Perhaps somebody can tell me what to do to get this stuff working, because I don't want to use another distro!
    thanks
    lotho
    Sorry for the bad grammar, I read more english then I write.

    Maybe try grabbing the install floppies and extracting them onto the usb, or just grab everything but the packages (which comprise ~97% of the space on the CD) from the CD, and put it on the stick, then do FTP install.

  • Upgraded to osx lion via bootable USB stick but start up now just hangs on the grey apple screen

    Hi.  I've just recently upgraded from snow leopard to osx lion 10.7.3 on my laptop and it works perfectly! However I then tried installing on desktop and problems......
    1. I got the 'the error can't install message' so after researching' I made a bootable USB stick with lion on it.
    2. Installed on start up from bootable USB stick, no problems their.
    3. Restarted and it just hangs in the grey apple screen.
    I've reset the PRAM, started in safe mode, fixed disk permission etc, Even done this (http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20070204093925888).
    I'm going to leave the grey screen over night to see if it does start up, but then we have the problem of an extremely slow start up.
    So.... I am posting this to find out if anyone else has this problem and fixed it without having to do a full clean install as some data like email lists etc I never backed up (I know stupid).
    Hope someone can help as i am lost on what else to try.
    HELP!?!?!?
    Dan.

    Update 01.03.12
    Computer is starting now but.... It takes 10 minutes and that is without my sound card, hardware and external hard drives plugged in, gonna test that now.
    Are their and fixes for slow start ups?

  • Hi i bought a new 500gb hard drive on my 2011 macbook pro, it is a blank hardrive and i forgot to save my other files on an external hard drive , i have a usb stick with mavericks installed on it. can i just go ahead and do a straight install by using it?

    hi i have a macbook pro 2011 model, i decided to upgrade my hardrive and bought a 500gb blank hardrive, my query is because i wasnt able to save most of my files and my operating system to an external hard drive, i have a usb stick with a mavericks os installed on it. will i be able to do a straight install by just doing this method? i will be grateful for any tips or help u might offer, thanks.

    Is it just bootable or does it have the Mavericks installation files on it? If so, yes. If not, no. You might consider getting an external enclosure. Put your old drive in it and boot to its Recovery partition. You can install from there. As a matter of fact, you can run Migration Assistant and get all your stuff over too.

  • Synchronizing files on multiple computers with 1 usb stick

    i would like to synchroze a number of different files and folders on 2 or more machines with a usb stick. each folder exists normally only on 1 machine and the usb stick, so the stick should synchronize different folders when connected to different machines.
    as an example; on computer 1 i have files a, b & c of which i would like to have a current backup version on the usb. on computer 2 i have files d and e.
    so on the stick i have files a, b, c, d and e.
    every time when the stick is used with computer 2, i want to synchronize files d and e only. every time when the stick is used with computer 1, it should synchronize files a, b and c only.
    instead of installing just any synchronization software on every machine that i would use, i would prefer to have the program installed only on the usb stick and run it from there.
    theoretically it whould then find its settings in ~/Library/Preferences where it will find settings specific for that machine (whether to synchronize files a, b and c or files d and e)
    all machines i'd be using for this run various versions of os 10, but all 10.3.9 or later
    so far theory - is there anyone who's done this? with how many machines? any experiences? things to do or to avoid?
    thanks

    No problem. Post back with any questions. We'll see what we can come up with...
    Playlists can be exported and imported between iTunes setups. Not sure you can truly 'merge' the embedded meta-data in the IL file. Only what is stored within the song file itself.

    My apple tv3, serial no. C07JWBZ9DRHN is not powering on.  Connected with Computer, with micro USB cable with power on, it is not shown in Devices.  How to rectify

    You have to remove all cables before connecting to your computer with micro usb. Power is only connected when using a 3rd gen device and done after the initial connection.

  • Windows 7 Bootable USB stick

    Hi, I am trying to create a bootable USB stick for use in deploying an Embedded Windows 7 image.  I have followed the instructions here:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff795043(v=WinEmbedded.1001).aspx.  That seems straight forward.  But, I can not seem to boot to the stick.  Is that page missing any instructions?
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Ok.  Still no luck.  I have tried on more than one usb stick.  I have also booted the target device from a CD-Rom to prove the BIOS is working properly.  Steps 1 - 7 are straight forward.  I am new to Windows Embedded 7 in general
    and ICE.  But, 8-14 seem fairly straight forward as well.  I am not quite sure what to look at.   ICE is a trial version. Hopefully that is not an issue.  For the ICE portion above, I do the following. 
    1) I start ICE.  I have the distribution share pointing here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Embedded Standard 7\DSSP1.
    2) I right click to create a new answer file.  I Validate -> Validate Only, then I resolve the dependencies.  I then save the answer file.  I can post that if it helps.
    3) I then choose Tools -> Create Media -> Create IBW Image from Answer File..." and chose a folder to write that to.  After the process, the image folder I created, has the following in it:
    AUTORUN.INF
    AutoUnattend.xml
    AutoUnattend_Files
    BOOT
    BOOTMGR
    EFI
    RELEASE NOTES.HTM
    SETUP.EXE
    sources
    SUPPORT
    UPGRADE
    4) I copy that to the root of the USB stick.
    5) I go to my target device.  I try to boot to the stick.  I am told "Disk Boot Failure.  Insert system disc and press enter"
    So, it seems that I can not boot from the stick.  In the past, I have had Windows XP installed on the target device, and, know that I can see the USB port.  So, I do not believe that is the problem.  Maybe someone sees a problem with what
    I have done?  Any ideas on how to trouble shoot?
    Thanks,
    Scott

  • I want to "burn" a .dmg (windows 7 file) to a bootable usb stick

    I have a late 2008 Macbook Pro and the superdrive doesn't read or write any disks (a common problem with this type of syperdrive)
    I want to install the dvd with Windows 7 on my Mac and of course i can't because of my superdrive problem.
    I have converted the dvd to a .dmg file so that I can make a bootable usb stick.
    But I can't "burn" the .dmg image to a usb. I've tried many ways to copy it but unsuccessful.
    Can someone please help me?

    Welcome to Apple Communities

  • HT5639 Can I install Win7 32-bit from a bootable USB-Stick on iMac using Boot Camp?

    I would like to run Win7 32-bit on my iMac 8,1.
    I have a bootable USB-Stick to install Win7.
    Does Boot Camp support the installation from USB-Stick?
    Thanks

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You can only install Windows from a USB drive in one of these Macs:
    - MacBook Pro with Retina display.
    - MacBook Air.
    - Mac mini (Mid 2010 and newer).
    - iMac (Late 2012).
    As you don't have any of those Macs, you have to install Windows through a DVD. Also, the only iMac that can install Windows using a USB drive only supports a 64-bit Windows 7 and 8 version with Boot Camp

  • Cannot create your bootable usb stick

    Hi all,
    I'm new to bootcamp and I have the following problem:
    When I'm creating a Windows 7 usb drive, it gives me an error "Cannot create your bootable usb stick there was a problem copying files".
    I've tried searching google for the problem, but the only possible solutions I've got was to unmount the iso image and try again, but when I do that I still get the same error and when I check the disk utility I find the iso image is mounted again.
    Does anyone haven an idea about what to do.
    Specs:
    OS X Yosemite 10.10.2
    MacBook Pro Retina 13-inch Mid 2014
    2,6Ghz Core i%
    8 GB 1600 MHz ddr3
    Thanks in advance!

  • Three beeps when booting new computer with MSI Z77A-G43 Mobo

    I just built this pc and pressed the power button. Nothing happens for a few seconds and then I hear 3 beeps from the PC speaker. It powers off by itself and opens again, with 3 beeps again, and repeats this until i press the power button to close it down forcefully.
    Board: MSI Z77A-G43
    Bios: I am not sure, but the box says Click BIOS II
    VGA:   MSI 7850 Twin Frozr III
    PSU:   Corsair Builder 600W 80 PLUS Bronze Certified ATX12V Power Supply
    CPU: Intel Core i5-3570K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor LGA 1155
    MEM: Corsair
    HDD: 1 TB Western Digital Caviar Black
    COOLER: CoolMaster Hyper 212 EVO
    OC: none

    3 beeps is a memory failure!
    try each stick in slot 2 individually as you may possibly have a bad stick?
    if the first suggestion doesn't work remove the CPU and check the socket as you may have a bent pin in there causing the issue?
