FlashBoot (вроде последняя версия FlashBoot.v1.3.0.124)
Вот цитата из nfo:
Цитата: FlashBoot is a tool to create bootable USB disks, USB
Flash Memory keys and cards mainly. What are the
benefits of such devices for you? Let's see: unlike the
most bootable medias, bootable USB Flash keys are
very handy: compared to floppies, they have much
bigger size, speed and reliability, compared to
CD-ROMs, they are random write access devices, so
you can backup your data to the same media where you
booted from, without need to reformat (reburn) the entire
media. Again, the cost per megabyte for them continues
to cut down, which is not the case for CD-ROMs and
floppies.
And the most important thing is that you can use
bootable USB Flash Disk almost everywhere, on any
PC that has USB port. Are you going to repair your PC
at your work without CD-ROMs, floppies or other
media? No problems anymore. Or you have a laptop but
without a CD-ROM drive? Even if with a CD-ROM
drive, you can't work with it for a long time: boot device
is accessed quite often, and battery power is obviously
not enough to supply laser for a long time. Perhaps you
are home user with a desktop PC. And you are ready to
repair it with your favorite bootable CD-ROM, OK. But
what if CD-ROM drive fails? Will you be able to boot or
to get your backup data back?
With bootable USB Flash Memory key, you may boot
every PC with USB ports, regardless of non-present or
broken devices, because there's no need for any extra
devices. You don't have a media size limit of 700 or 800
MB anymore, and buy a big or a small disk depending
on your needs. Just after boot, on every PC, you may
save your files to the same device from which you
booted, or restore them back. There's no need to
reformat (reburn) the boot disk, you just copy files and
folders, and there's no need for extra hardware for such
operations. Of course you may do some things you can't
do under your OS: copy/modify system files (they are
busy when OS is running), reinstall OS, repartition your
main hard disk etc.
FlashBoot is a tool that makes USB disks bootable. It
was specially designed to work with USB Flash devices.
It is used to reformat flash disk (that's optional) and
transfer system files to it. You have many options for
your choice:
convert BartPE bootable CD-ROM to bootable USB disk
transfer DOS kernel only (you may get the files from
installed Windows 9x, from Windows 9x setup folder, or
use built-in FreeDOS)
convert floppy disk to USB Flash disk (a diskette or an
image file may be used)
convert a bootable CD-ROM to USB Flash disk (again
images are supported). There are some technical
difficulties with supporting any type of CD-ROM here,
see details below. But there should be no troubles with
the most real cases. You may convert Knoppix and
EBCD, for instance.
create Windows NT/2000/XP password recovery disk
create disk with NT/2000/XP bootloader. It would be
useful when you have mistakenly configured it, and
boot.ini file was left on unreachable disk (NTFS).
duplicate USB flash disk. Just creates a copy of existing
disk USB flash disk, different sizes of source and
destination medias are OK.
Types of convertible CD-ROMs include so-called
1.44-floppy emulation bootable CD-ROMs and
no-emulation CD-ROMs based on ISOLinux. |
