device, but the idea is to force BIOS to read the Cylinder/Head/Sector
geometry from the device.
- 2. Without such an option, the BIOS generally boots the device in USB-ZIP
- mode. To write an image to a USB device that will be bootable in
- USB-ZIP mode, carry out the following actions:
+ 2. Use a ".wic" image with an EFI partition
- a. Determine the geometry of your USB device using fdisk:
+ a) With a default grub-efi bootloader:
+ # dd if=core-image-minimal-genericx86-64.wic of=/dev/sdb
- # fdisk /dev/sdb
- Command (m for help): p
-
- Disk /dev/sdb: 4011 MB, 4011491328 bytes
- 124 heads, 62 sectors/track, 1019 cylinders, total 7834944 sectors
- ...
-
- Command (m for help): q
-
- b. Configure the USB device for USB-ZIP mode:
-
- # mkdiskimage -4 /dev/sdb 1019 124 62
-
- Where 1019, 124 and 62 are the cylinder, head and sectors/track counts
- as reported by fdisk (substitute the values reported for your device).
- When the operation has finished and the access LED (if any) on the
- device stops flashing, remove and reinsert the device to allow the
- kernel to detect the new partition layout.
-
- c. Copy the contents of the image to the USB-ZIP mode device:
-
- # mkdir /tmp/image
- # mkdir /tmp/usbkey
- # mount -o loop core-image-minimal-genericx86.hddimg /tmp/image
- # mount /dev/sdb4 /tmp/usbkey
- # cp -rf /tmp/image/* /tmp/usbkey
-
- d. Install the syslinux boot loader:
-
- # syslinux /dev/sdb4
-
- e. Unmount everything:
-
- # umount /tmp/image
- # umount /tmp/usbkey
-
- Install the boot device in the target board and configure the BIOS to boot
- from it.
-
- For more details on the USB-ZIP scenario, see the syslinux documentation:
- http://git.kernel.org/?p=boot/syslinux/syslinux.git;a=blob_plain;f=doc/usbkey.txt;hb=HEAD
+ b) Use systemd-boot instead
+ - Build an image with EFI_PROVIDER="systemd-boot" then use the above
+ dd command to write the image to a USB stick.
