    Hey guys,

    I used this (http://www.trustedreviews.com/notebooks ... SI-Wind/p1) link on how to put Vista onto a USB and then install on my Aspire One.

    I did this in XP, and everything went fine. I used Vlite and created a 2.5gb iso file, then as the tute said I extracted to a USB stick and it all worked fine. I was a bit sus though as its not really a BOOTABLE usb so I wasnt hoping for the best.

    I get an error when I try to boot form bootman (F12) that it is an unsupported filesystem. How do I extract the ISO and make it bootable?

    thanks

    I do not know the process you are using, as I am staying with Linux.
    But be aware that not all USB sticks boot properly in the One.

    I posted the process I was using :?

    So is it my usb or the way I am doing it? How did you guys get your USB sticks to boot? Did you have to do anything before copying over ISO files?
