Anyone have experience with USBBOOT - i.e. full version of Win on USB drive ?

Post by Mrx »

I've used WinRE and it obviously doesn't include all lib's, so to get some software working, you have to manually add them.

To Save the hassle of manually adding lib's, I'm thinking of using full Win install, fully configured, and then using OSDTS USBBOOT - Make Windows on USB Bootable script

Just wondering of People's experience with it ?

Also, seen Ultimagte Boot disk, using Ventoy - viewtopic.php?t=4286

Main idea is similar, with all main OS's + software but with no foot-print on booted machine, aside from RAM, unless encrypted.

Any idea's, suggestion's, would be appreciated.

Mrx,

I thought we discussed this some time ago. Maybe it was someone else.

It's a disaster if you use a flash drive. Too, too slow. It's OK if you use a SSD with a USB3 connection.
If you use the SSD on a different computer there is an upgrade process. I can't recall the details.
