I followed the instructions to use the SUSE Studio image writer to create a live usb stick from iso of the live cd. Unfortunately, it's not working in Windows 7 because the usb stick is unable to boot after being restarted. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Download and launch the SUSE Studio ImageWriter in Windows. 2.Create a live usb stick using a live cd image for opensuse 11.3. 3.Reboot the computer. Actual Results: The usb stick is not booting up after being selected at start. The computer requested to press any key to reboot. Expected Results: It should display a proper screen for opensuse 11.3 to either test or install the live cd. I tried all the live usb creating software for different linux distributions that I found on the internet and none of them did work to boot the dvd iso image or the live cd. I also tired dd for Windows to create a live usb stick, but it didn't seem to do anything in Windows 7. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Note that there are some computers/laptops needs some BIOS configuration to boot from USB so check your BIOS, I think they refer to it as "Legacy USB Support".

I would suggest it's more likely there is bug in the software which makes the bootable usb stick. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

It's worth having a look with the website because you can see how bad is the problem. I tired it again a few days ago to boot up opensuse 11.4 Live KDE with Universal USB creator from pendriveinux.com , Unetbootin and LinuxLive USB creator. The same thing happened again when I booted up, it says on the screen kernel image not found. A kernel panic has occured, there is a series flaw in the live image of Opensuse. This problem remains unresolved in Opensuse 11.4. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

See the workaround at http://suse-studio-users.1598176.n2.nabble.com/LiveUSB-td4128237.html#a55958... It`s the most annoying thing of susestudio I know. And it`s old!

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=634956 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=634956#c9 --- Comment #9 from Tomas Jensen 2011-10-25 20:20:03 UTC --- (In reply to comment #7)

*** Bug 723526 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

I disagree. The problem I sees is that Studio Imagewriter cannot write ISO or RAW to an USB stick. When I tries to use Studio Imagewriter under Windows 7 it crashes: Reports access denied when writing to USB flashpen. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Insert USB flashpen 2.Write *.iso/*.raw to USB 3. Actual Results: Exception write during caught:System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: Access denied At ImageWriter.DriveAccess.Write(Byte||buffer,UInt32len) At ImageWriter.MainWindow,WriteToDisk() Expected Results: Success Bug 634956 shows that when the image somehow has been written to the stick is corrupted. The workaround described in #8 cannot be done in Windows 7. I think https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723526 has to be reopened. /Tomas Jensen -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
