USB Boot works the same way a floppy disk was earlier used to boot a
computer up. It is mostly used to repair, recover, or install an operating system
from scratch. To perform a USB boot, first, you would have to create a
bootable USB device.
This can be done using your own PC or other third-party utilities. Then the
software will copy all the operating system files and boot the sequence into the
USB drive/pen drive to enable the USB boot. In order to create a bootable USB,
you would need a USB drive/pen drive with a minimum of 8 GB of storage.
Learning Activity 1:
Rules: Locate the given words in the grid, running in one of eight possible
directions horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. Answer Str
ing: Varies by puzzle.
Search for cmd in Start menu, right-click on the command prompt, click on Run
as Administrator.
Step 2: Connect the USB device to the computer that is to be made bootable.
Step 3: Type the command ‘diskpart’ and then press Enter.
Step 4: Type the command ‘list disk’ to display a list of all the available storage
devices on your system. Press Enter to continue.
Step 5: Select the disk that is your pen drive. Generally, it is marked as Disk 1, it
might vary system to system. Make sure not to select any other available disk
as it will get formatted. To choose the disk, type the command ‘select disk 1’
and press Enter.
Step 6: To make
a pendrive bootable, there is a need to format it to clean the existing data. This
can be done by the use of ‘clean’ command.
Step 7: Type the command ‘create partition primary’ and press Enter. This will
make the disk primary and ready to be made bootable.
Step 8: To choose the partition created as primary, type the command ‘select
partition 1’ and press Enter.
Step 9: Before
making the disk bootable, there is a need to format it as NTFS because
Windows uses NTFS file system for storage. This can be done with the use of
command ‘format=fs NTFS’ and press Enter.
Step 10: Type the command ‘active’ and press Enter. This will mark the primary
bootable partition as Active.
Step 11: Type the command ‘exit’ to exit DISKPART and press Enter.
Step 12: Now copy all the data from the OS(Windows/Linux/etc.) installation
disk to your USB drive that is just been made bootable. Now, this Pendrive can
be used to install the desired Operating System on any computer.
