You will need root privileges to flash the image to a USB (step 5). In this section I describe how to create the image from the ISO on linux by following these steps.Įach step will be described in detail in subsequent sections. Of course the previous sections only describe how to use the image. For the record, I think that DSL (Damn Small Linux) would be another good alternative. The flash firmware is always available in DOS format and this distribution is very small so it easily fits on 1GB USB sticks with all of the drivers that I need. Why would anyone want to do this? Well I certainly can’t speak for other folks but I use these USBs when building cloud filers to flash the firmware of SAS/SATA controllers to HBA (I/T) mode so that I can install the ZFS file system without hardware RAID. I would appreciate any feedback here from windows users. On windows you need to unzip the file and then use a tool like imgburn to flash the USB.
