You can imagine that you do your backups with Acronis on regular basics and so you can use this virtual disk in VMware ESX Server or WMware Workstation. When you are using Acronis True Image Echo Workstation (or Server) to backup and create an image file of your system, you can convert this file into Virtual Disk.

The title I put is exactly what I want to do "burn iso image to usb memory stick"īefore when I was talking about acronis, I thought it would be possible and "backup" the CD to a.
I basically want to turn my USB stick into a cd drive or something, so I can boot the install cd from the usb stick. This includes the boot partition and all CDFS or whatever filesystem linux uses. I want an exact copy of a bootable linux cd (live cd, ubuntu, etc) from an iso or other CD. I'll try to be as clear as possible to what I want: its not the cd drive because i tried with a few other drives I'm using the P5Q and I'm gonna send it back to get it exchanged for a gigabyte or something, but meanwhile I need to cope with it. I think it's a motherboard/bios problem (I updated, no fix). I'm using nero to burn, and these DVDs all work properly on other computers, all except windows.
I would try and setup a bootable linux/variant on a USB drive and try booting from there (set usb drive to boot before hdd/cd in bios) and see if that works first (and then back up the MBR through linux/etc, as it's a lot easier than, say, having a DOS floppy disk).īootIT NG (Terabyte Unlimited): Their backup/restore allows you to backup the MBR of any drive. The real question is: why isn't your system loading anything but windows? Can you load windows from a cd/dvd? I'm thinking that it sounds like it's an issue with your cd/dvd rom not functioning properly. Looks like they'd want you to make a floppy with a bootable dos disk (I would do that, and then burn that onto disk). <- Microsoft's advice on how to backup the Master Boot Record (with Norton Disk Edit). Oh wait I thought you wanted to boot from a USB stick and/or backup? Not set up a bootable cd? You just want to backup your MBR to have a backup of it in case something happens? What is the real problem that you're trying to solve by backing up the MBR?
