ISO files should be unpacked to USB flash and to maintain more than 2 linux distribs it is needed to write code to nf by hands. It is possible to make multiboot UEFI flash with WinSetupFromUSB. But to start it from BIOS the only needed thing is to install syslinux from WinSetupFromUSB app. To minimize disk usage i have to delete original ISO and remove Grub4Dos config section for PartedMagic booting. Now PartedMagic can be started from UEFI. Added grub圆4.efi from PartedMagic to our /efi/boot folder and added to nf: Main is the pmagic folder and boot subfolders. But to work in UEFI i unpacked PartedMagic iso to flash. Initially it worked well with Grub4Dos and CD emulation. Original Win7 efi loader renamed to bootw圆4.efi and added to nf:Īfter this step rEFInd is starting on UEFI systems and show boot manager GUI that can start efi OS from HDD, or efi memtest, or efi parted utility or EFI Shell ) and our Win 7 installation.Īfter this i added PartedMagic to be able to boot in both BIOS and UEFI mode. So what i have done to build multiboot USB with WinSetupFromUSB.įirst of all take rEFInd by Roderick W. Long time i have worked in BIOS environment and even deleted EFI folder from USB. Long time i have used Rufus and YUMI and moved to WinSetupFromUSB to build ultimate USB with useful utilities for myself. > In UEFI mode only Windows is supported. adding more than 1 image file per type at once: going back to the problem I had before, now I want to readd everything again, the problem is that the HDD being used is 120GB and It has 80% used from all the images added, so I have to copy all the images back to the computer and then adding them again one at a time, max 2 if it’s a linux and windows image… recreate boot files from existing files: I had some old 2.5″ HDDs which 1 of those I used as a USB util with the first partition being WINSETUP and the other one being backup files, so the WINSETUP partition had some windows installations as well as some linux installations, the thing is that I had to change the HDD, because I had to use that HDD because is larger, so I copied the WINSETUP partition to a 120GB HDD with 1 partition, then I boot from it in on a PC and the grub boot couldn’t “find the partition”, so I thought that maybe the boot files checks for the UIDD and obviously it’s not the same, so then I guessed that adding an image will fix the boot files because the program checks that up so, with the same version i used before, I added 2 more windows installation images, and when I booted up it didn’t show me all the previous windows images, instead showed me only 4 options and the same name for 3 of them (when I had like 8 images total) even the option to go back to grub was changed… so yeah, that’s my request, there should be an option to recreate all the boot files from the drive that is being used based on the images already in the drive (obviously checking that the names are correct and the locations are too) or even recognicing the images even if they are in the root directory of the drive and locating them where they should be, checking if they are defragmented and moving files that are not supported to a temp folder outside the drive… and if there are no ISO files, then it does nothing… could be dangerous if the user doesn’t select the correct drive, but no software can be 100% fool proof… I just believe it’s a useful feature…Ģ. Hi, I really love this software, I use it a lot… but I have some features request…ġ.
