Программа
для создания загрузочного USB Flash Drive. Кроме USB-носителей,
поддерживаются другие типы устройств. Позволяет производить
форматирование и копирование файлов системы. Поддерживаются различные
операционные системы: Windows 7/Vista, Windows XP, SysLinux, диски
GRUB4DOS, Linux kernel и т.д.
Вы можете создать чистую
загрузочную USB-флэшку с минимальным набором файлов системы и затем
вручную настроить "под себя", или преобразовать полнофункциональный
самозагрузочный CD-ROM или дискету в самозагрузочную USB-флэшку,
содержащию все их функциональные возможности. FlashBoot может как
отформатировать физический диск, так и создать его образ.
FlashBoot
is a tool to make USB disks bootable. Its primary focus is USB Flash
disks, but other types of USB devices are supported as well. Making
disk bootable involves formatting and copying operating system files to
it. Different operating systems are supported: Windows 7/Vista, Windows
XP, SysLinux-based disks, GRUB4DOS disks, Linux kernel etc. You may
create blank bootable USB flash with minimal set of system files and
then manually tune it for your needs, or convert a full-featured
bootable CD-ROM or floppy disk to bootable USB Flash keeping all
functionality. FlashBoot can either format physical disk or write an
image file. So you may create customized USB disk manually or with
another tool and use FlashBoot to create image out of it and
redistribute it in local network or online.
Why do you might want to use bootable USB flash disks?
Unlike
the most bootable medias, bootable USB Flash keys are very handy:
compared to floppies, they have much bigger size, speed and
reliability, compared to CD/DVD discs, they are random write access
devices, so you can backup your data to the same media where you booted
from, without need to reformat (reburn) the entire media. Again, the
cost per gigabyte for them continues to cut down, unlike CD/DVD discs.
Bootable
USB flash disks are especially useful with netbooks like ASUS Eee PC
which does not have builtin CD/DVD drive or an opportunity to install
one. On the other hand, buying external CD/DVD drive for netbook is not
a truly wise choice because it will be shifted out of use just after
Windows is installed, thanks to widespread use of DVD image files and
modern hard disk capacities.
Bootable USB flash disks are useful
as boot devices on the "big" desktop PCs too, unlike CD/DVD discs they
do not have sensible surface you could scratch, thus more reliable
(especially when holding your backup data). If your sysadmin at work
restricts PC to not to have CD/DVD drives, you still can boot from USB
flash disk. Or if your home PC has CD/DVD drive failed, you can do it
too.
There are some mobility considerations as well. If your
laptop has a bootable CD/DVD drive, you can't work with it for a long
time: boot device is accessed quite often, and battery power is
obviously not enough to supply laser for a long time.
With
bootable USB Flash disk, you don't have to obey a CD/DVD size limit of
700 or 4700 MB. You can buy a big or a small USB disk depending on your
needs. Just after boot, on every PC, you may save your files to the
same boot device, or restore them back. There's no need to reformat
(reburn) the boot disk, you just copy files and folders, and there's no
need for extra hardware for such operations. Of course you may do some
things you can't do under your OS: copy/modify system files (they are
busy when OS is running), reinstall OS, repartition your main hard disk
etc.
