Now you need to write some configuration files.Then copy a freeldr.sys bootloader from ReactOS 0.4.13 or higher.Now you need to copy mboot.c32 and libcom32.c32 syslinux libraries to the root.It uses freeldr.sys from the fb4591c commit.
#RUFUS OS TO USB ISO#
Notice: you may download all the required files, except iso images, in a zip-archive. Now it's time to copy some files onto it.

Plug in the flash drive and leave it unmounted.
#RUFUS OS TO USB HOW TO#
Here is how to install it (for syslinux version 6.x): It should have a FAT32 filesystem and the Multiboot specification-capable bootloader should be installed on it.įor example, you can use syslinux. The basic idea of this method is to dump the whole unchanged iso file into memory first (make a ramdisk) and then boot from it without touching the original media.įor this method, you should prepare a flash drive first. ReactOS feature: the iso will work even if written in a raw dd mode.On Windows Rufus tool can be used for that.This is an ordinary way to prepare USB, feel free to follow any guide for Windows. You cannot install ReactOS yet from a LiveCD. To run ReactOS only from USB drive, download LiveCD. NOTE: To install ReactOS from USB drive, download a BootCD, but first make sure LiveCD boots for you. If regular LiveUSB does not work for you after 2-3 tries with different USB ports, you can try RAMDISK method. Previously only RAMDISK method was recommended. After storage stack replacement and massive memory management work (as of build 0.4.1-gb0c143c), LiveUSB started to work as intended. New USB stack by Vadim Galyant was enabled in build 0.4.13-dev-942-g88cf5b0. 2.2.3 Next common steps for both platforms.
