My problem is that if dvd are perfectly bootable, the ssd in the caddy is not.
is there anyway to make this device bootable?
It is up to your BIOS, there is nothing that can be done from OS side if BIOS does not allow selection of this device as boot medium. to allow booting, it needs to see it as a dvd,
DVD and HDD are two different types of ATA devices. It is most likely not enough to write ISO onto HDD because BIOS will never even attempt to access it as DVD. Otherwise nobody needed hybrid images in the first place.
probably a trick like the one for booting isos on usb pen (but the other way round?)
Which just proves what I said.
if time permits, I could try to write a dvd iso to the disk mbr?
I doubt any ISO image could fit into 512 bytes, given that ISO block size is 2KB. If you mean overwrite whole disk, it would be interesting to know whether it worked. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
