X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 26 Sep 2005 05:06:38 -0000 Hi, I have a USB memory stick of one GigaByte. I learned that on some PCs, the BIOS allows booting from USB memory-stick. Is this possible with FreeBSD? If yes, then how do I install FreeBSD on such a USB memory stick, so that it becomes a 'bootable USB'? Thanks, Rob. __________________________________ Yahoo!
