Make a bootable usb drive

in #tutorials7 years ago (edited)

USB drive just like your normal storage device but it can be used so many ways, will be looking on are to make it bootable, when i say bootable your system will be able to detect as an app that needs to be install just like a gaming cd you bought, but with this you can use to format a system, remove forgotten password from system( would be discussing this later) and so many other things.
To do this you need to backup any file you must have kept inside the flashdrive before proceeding

Advantage

  1. You can repair a damage sd card (external phone memory card with this)
  2. you can flash a system that does not support cd rom with this
  3. You can still copy your normal file and backup your files with the bootable drive

Requirement

  1. A usb flash drive
  2. Working pc and access to cmd( command prompt)
  3. Abilty to read
  4. Difficulty lvl- Easy
  5. Note: The command below should be type in without the HYPHEN
    To start will be using a 16gb usb flash drive
    open your command prompt from your search menu by typing CMD
    after opening you will get a menu as shown in the picture below
    a. Type in 'diskpart'

    d. type in 'select disk #' # it represent the flashdrive storage number

    e. type in 'clean' - this is to format or clean the flashdrive

    f. type in 'create partition primary'

    g. type in 'select partition 1'

    h. type in 'active'
    Screenshot (555).png
    i. type in 'format fs=fat32'
    Screenshot (556).png
    j. type in 'assign'
    Screenshot (548).png
    k. type in 'exit'

If all is successful your window will look like the picture below
