Create a bootable USB disk


Here is a short guide of making a bootable USB disk.

  1. We connect an empty USB disk to our computer (tested in Win Vista Business)
  2. In Commant Prompt we type the following orders:
  3. DISKPART
  4. LIST DISK (locate your USB disk & notice the disk number e.x. Disk 1)
  5. SELECT Disk 1
  6. CLEAN
  7. CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY
  8. SELECT PARTITION 1
  9. ACTIVE
  10. FORMAT FS=FAT32
  11. ASSIGN
  12. EXIT
  13. Then you should copy the whole content of your bootable cd to usb Disk
The above steps worked fine while making a Norton Ghost 14 Boot Disk (USB)
