![]() ![]() Microsoft isn't the only UEFI Forum Promoter (the top level of membership) who has its own filesystem. ![]() FAT32 support is widely-understood in the industry and would be much easier to implement. I don't necessarily think this is a bad thing, though. ![]() Microsoft granted rights to the FAT32 file system for the purpose of developing and implementing EFI. Version 1.0.15.0 was released a while ago, but I just noticed you had a question about UEFI and FAT32, which I'll try to explain: In a nutshell, the UEFI forum needed to select a file system for use by the EFI partition on the disk where additional files are stored (unlike BIOS, not all of the firmware has to be stored on an EEPROM parts of it can reside on disk as well). In windows, with my resent experience, just use the media creation tool with the ISO already downloaded on your computer. That might change if/when Microsoft desides to do such a change. For windows there is no difference between the too, at least I don't think there is at this time. It can be written using DD but in Windows you just have to either use some third party usb stick creation tool, exactly like you would with a regular ISO or the provided media creation tool. To answer the question of another user, hybrid images can be burned in *nix OS's to a thumb drive without having to go through the extra steps to make it a bootable stick. I realize that ESET sysrescue is more effective if it can connect to the internet, but I am unable to provide an ethernet connection, I can only give it a WiFi connection with this particular computer. How can I update the image to include the drivers for this card? or is there a way to have a generic wifi driver on the ISO so it can work with most of these wifi setups? Failing that, can I update the scanner with an offline updated virus signiture file? It is a desktop and I am using an ASUS wifi pcie card for this. One of the computers I have to check is on a wireless connection. I will try DD again later tonight to make sure that DD can or can't do this. WITH the ISO on hand, (please update the instructions if the ISO is supposed to be downloaded before or fix the media creation tool to download it itself if it is supposed to be able to do that), the media creation tool created a good LiveUSB stick. I used DD and the media rescue tool to create the LiveUSB, I had trouble with the DD, but I have had trouble with using hybrid ISO's to make a usb stick with the image before, it seems to recognize it as a hybrid, so I think you are right, it is a hybrid. My router should not have had a problem letting the iso go through. If the media creation tool can access the internet to download, by design, then the failure is in that situation. While I read the instructions, it doesn't seem to inform, at least not obviously, the user that you really should download the ISO yourself. The issue seems to be that the media creator can't access the internet to download the ISO. ![]()
