Diskette boot without floppy drive?

#1 Post by richarddd » Fri Aug 27, 2004 6:53 am

A number of programs will only boot from a floppy disk, such as HDD utilities. Is there any way to use these programs with a USB cd-rom or a USB key?

USB memory key should work. Read this thread. Creating a bootable CD is more complicated.
