Therefore booting from a USB device is not possible, neither to restore data from CD via DOS-based programs.

Booting from a USB drive is possible on all Macintosh models beginning with the Power Mac G4 (AGP Graphics) and the slot-loading iMac (See Apple Knowledgebase Article # 58430).

Encrypt the entire USB flash drive. However, you will not be able run TrueCrypt from the USB flash drive. Create a TrueCrypt file container on the USB flash drive (for information on how to do so, see the chapter Beginner's Tutorial, in the TrueCrypt User Guide).

Before inserting your USB memory stick, please log in to the machine directly (not via SSH from another system). Logging in at the console will ensure that the USB memory device is mounted with you as the owner. It is safest to insert the device into one of the USB ports on the front of the computer (rather than those on the back or on the keyboard).

How do I activate the internet functions? I am sure that LAN functions are working well on WinFast K7NCR18G Pro motherboard. If the problem is not caused by wiring and internet settings, then check with BIOS settings too. Please follow the steps below: Step 1: Visit Leadtek's website and download the latest BIOS, and make sure the AWDFLASH.EXE is the latest BIOS version. Step 2: Make sure that there is no any other TSR (terminate-and-stay-resident) programs under the DOS mode.

A few people have reported this problem. It appears to be related to some CD drives that have DMA issues. If this solution works for you, would you mind sending us mail (linux-project@pcquest.com) telling us what CDROM drive and motherboard you use? Thanks! The file zlib-1.1.3-22.i386.rpm on the CD seems to be corrupted, and I am getting errors mentioning libz.so.1 The distribution supports this setup under certain circumstances, but you must follow a slightly complicated method.

Generally speaking, booting from USB disk, CD/DVD drive is supported on x86 platforms with S10 update 1 and later if the BIOS has USB 2.0 support. Before you can boot Solaris from USB disk, you have to install Solaris on the disk first. Installing on USB memory sticks is not recommended as the number of writes to these sticks is limited. Installation from USB CD/DVD drive starts, but then fails with "not finding media" error.

Sure, you can. Create a primary partiton BEFORE your Windows partition (e.g. with PartitionMagic) and get a boot manager (I use the german tool 'Bootmanager', you can get a free trial version at http://www.bootmanager-pro.de).

The exact error message looks like Could not find USB device (vendor 0x0000, product 0x0000). Make sure this device is connected to the computer You have to set up the permissions on your USB device correctly. See Section 4.3, "Setting up permissions for USB ports".

Since NTFS support is Read-only, you can use either Ext3 or FAT32. Ext3 allows for better retention of file ownership and permission and may be more appropriate in a mult-user backup environment.

For those whose computers do not support the "boot from USB device" function, you can still enjoy the total recovery of data, operating system components, and applications by using the image recovery CD. This restores the whole system in a short amount of time.

If you are experiencing boot problems and TFTP Boot Recovery process cannot be performed, you can use the USB Boot Recovery instead. You'll need to download the latest RAIDiator image here and write that image to the USB flash device. To write the image on a Windows PC, you'll need to use Rawrite32.exe. Make sure to click the Eject button after the write is complete.

All computers are equipped with multiple ports for inserting USB devices. Most workstations have a USB cable that is attached to the table for more convenient access to the ports.

The location of USB ports varies by machine. Look for a flat rectangular opening. If you're in a lab, ask the lab assistant for help. You must be patient when printing on a network, especially when printing a file with a lot of graphics. Do not keep resending the print job - that only makes the problem worse. Open the printer control panel and see if your job is in the queue. If it is, and you've been waiting more than 5 minutes, ask a lab assistant for help.

I got this working on a 256M Sandisk Cruzer Mini, but the procedure should be the same for any USB drive. I used a Linux machine to prep the drive. You can probably use a Windows machine to do all of this stuff; if you figure it out, feel free to let us know and we will update these instructions. First, I needed to repartition and reformat the drive, because the original partition table was an unholy mess which confused the boot loader.

First, Your PC or notebook must support "External USB-HDD Boot up" function. Second, to make sure all the USB cables and power cord all firmly connect to USB slots or power in-lets. No. You must start re-boot process over again. At this moment, you must choose the correct date version you want.

With the NEC floppy drive attached, go into the BIOS (F2). Under the Advanced menu, click on Advanced System Configuration. Enable USB Legacy Support then save & exit. Go back into the BIOS and change the boot order. Put Diskette first in the order and then expand the Diskette group (press enter) to put NEC Floppy above Standard, save & exit.

This is a conflict between some system BIOSes and the SanDisk Cruzer Micro flash drive. It is not related to the busTRACE software. If your system exhibits this problem, the system might appear to hang during Windows boot when you have our dongle (i.e. SanDisk Cruzer Micro) installed in a USB port. If you remove the dongle, the system continues to boot just fine. You can plug the dongle back in and everything works fine.

Until recently, not very easily. You can access DOS 6.X volumes from the DOS emulator ("What software does Linux support? "), but it's harder than accessing a normal DOS volume via the DOS kernel option, a module, or mtools. There is a recently added package, dmsdos, that reads and writes compressed file systems like DoubleSpace/DriveSpace in MS-DOS 6.x and Win95, as well as Stacker versions 3 and 4. It is a loadable kernel module. Look at ftp://metalab.unc.

No Officially, the word from Dell is "no", and further investigation reveals that the 400SC uses the ICH5 (82810EB) southbridge, as shown in this picture. The Intel data sheet confirms that RAID support is only available on the ICH5R (82810ER) chipsets. Additionally, the BIOS only shows the option to enable/disable SATA, no RAID configuration. Also, Intel's Application Accelerator is not supported by the 400SC's chipset. It has become a RAID only utility.

That's fairly easy: You simply need to add a line to your CONFIG.SYS file, for example: DEVICE=C:\CDROM\IDE_CD.SYS /D:CD0001 Please change C:\CDROM\IDE_CD.SYS to your cd driver for DOS. You can get the driver with the drive on a diskette or try to use a different one from www.simtel.net. The example shown above is for MS DOS, for FreeDOS it would be FDEX /D:CD0001 and for DR DOS it would be NWCDEX /D:CD001). Look also at What is conventional memory? (2.

You can go 5 meters or around 16 feet from a computers USB port or from a powered USB hub to a USB device. Back To Questions

The requirement is similar to that of USB 1.1, but all components will have to be USB 2.0 compliant. A successful USB...

Windows 98 default supports only USB 1.1. Install a USB 2.0 PCI adapter then USB 2.0 device still can work fine in Windows 98. Some device such as Micronet´s USB 2.0 adapter, it includes a USB 2.0 driver written by third party so it can work in Windows 98SE.

Solaris supports Digi InsideOut Networks' devices and recently, KeySpan and Prolific chipset based devices' support were also integrated to Solaris. Keyspan and Prolific USB serial drivers are available in Solaris Express dated 2/2006 and in Solaris 10 Update 2 and later. PL2303 chip based adapters and Keyspan USA-19HS adapter are available as part of Solaris 10 Update 2. Keyspan USA-49WLC adapter is supported in Solaris Express dated 3/2006 and will be available in Solaris 10 update 3.

You can also use the dd command to copy the backup saved by LILO to the boot sector. Refer to the LILO documentation if you wish to do this. FDISK /MBR MBR stands for Master Boot Record. This command replaces the boot sector with a clean DOS one, without affecting the partition table. Some purists disagree with this, but even the author of LILO, Werner Almesberger, suggests it. It is easy, and it works.

Yes, but only on the Apple Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows IA-32, GNU/Linux AMD64 and IA-32, and Solaris 10 workstations. In all these cases, you should be able to see a removable disk in the file system (e.g., e:\filename on Windows, /rmdisk/noname on Solaris workstations, /tmp/SUNWut/mnt/USERNAME on Solaris Sun Ray systems).
