Hi, i believe the write way in linux is dd, and I suspect that won't work in cygwin. btw you can probably make the machine boot from usb without sited assistance by removing the hard drive inserting the usb drive booting the machine and reinserting the drive with the machine booted. I'm not sure how much the ubuntu installer will like this, but the kernel seems to be perfectly happy to hot plug unmounted drives. trev On Wed, Aug 11, 2010 at 03:50:17PM -0400, Lee Maschmeyer wrote: > Maybe the Linux method will work in Cygwin.
