Booting Windows from microSD card on the STK2M3W64CC Whilst the latest Intel Core M Compute Stick comes pre-loaded with Windows 10 it is possible to dual-boot. This is typically achieved by reducing the partition space allocated to Windows and creating a new partition for Ubuntu or similar. The assumption has always been that the faster eMMC storage would be reserved for the OS and any additional data storage could be gained from using either a USB or a microSD card or both. But what if the eMMC storage is totally dedicated to the primary OS and the secondary OS runs from the supplementary storage? Again this approach has been successfully with booting Ubuntu installed on a USB or a microSD card thereby leaving Windows untouched on the disk. However for some the requirement is for Ubuntu to be the primary OS and Windows the secondary one. There would obviously be no problem in installing and running Ubuntu but what doesnt seem to have discussed previously is whether it is possible to r...

Booting iso images with GRUB 2 With thousdands of linux distributions around , booting iso images with out burning it to a cd or dvd  saves a lot of money and effort.   Let us try to boot system rescue cd.

Booting Disk Images in Linux A Picture can be Worth a Thousand Words Sometimes there is no substitute for booting a computer to gather data.  But the forensic consequences of  directly booting the system under investigation are prohibitive.  And, while it can be possible to restore a computer image to another hard drive and install that drive in the computer hard drive for booting, this can be costly, very time consuming, and you only get one shot before youve changed the data from original (and repeated boots may be desirable depending on the investigation). In response to this, tools like LiveView were created.  The concept was to boot the forensic image, rather than restore it, and capture all system changes in a disk cache.  The operating system could be booted quickly and repeatedly from an original state.  However, I never found LiveView to be very effective, and it the past few years I have avoided Windows-based tools whenever possible . En...

Booting an old VIA EPIA 5000L motherboard I purchased an old VIA fanless mini-ITX motherboard on eBay, including CPU and RAM and shipping, for a reasonable price ($43). I want to play with it and see what I can get it to do. Maybe build a cool case for it... MB attached to ordinary ATX power supply, VGA monitor, and PS/2 Mouse. Tiny black rectangle on the right is the on/off jumper. Step 1: Hook it up Happily, I have an old PS/2 keyboard, VGA monitor, and ATX power supply handy. Hook them all up...and nothing. Of course, the power switch. Get the manual, read the manual, find the jumper, and use a spare jumper to connect them for a moment. Hooray! Fans on the power supply start to spin! Beep! Splash appears on the monitor! I made the following BIOS changes: Always restart upon power loss (since I dont have a power switch!) Enable fast startup (skip memtest, faster boot) Skip splash (annoying) Skip BIOS summary (annoying) Change the boot device to USB-ZIP (not USB-FDD, essential for USB...
