    Default Want to make a Win PE Disc into bootable flash drive

    Hello everyone,

    I have a ISO file that my employer has given me to burn when doing desktop deployment. An issue that I have come across is that Tech always taking Cd's and not putting it back. so to make life easy I would like to make that disc into a bootable usb.

    from going thru the iso directory I realize that the iso has WINNT.SIF and another ISO file

    WINNT.SIF
    [SetupData]
    BootDevice = "ramdisk(0)"
    BootPath = "\i386\system32\"
    OsLoadOptions = "/noguiboot /fastdetect /minint /rdexportascd /rdpath=winpex86.iso"

    any suggestion in getting it bootable on a flash drive?

    One of those may do what you need. Let us know if it works out for you.
    Knowing the solution doesn't mean knowing the method. Yet answering correctly and regurgitation are considered "learning" and "knowledge".

    I use YUMI. I have just about every ISO (XP, Win7, Vista, W2K3, W2K8, UBCD, BartPE, GParted, and a slew of LINUX distro) I need on a 32GB USB stick. Its bootable, just select the ISO you need to boot from.
