BEFORE inserting your USB drive, run theAs you can figure out by yourself, there are read and write permissions on a hard disk drive, memory card, USB stick, pen drive, and jump drive. What software can you recommend for working with those drives when under.# First, we need to find our device. I have some external hard drives that are Mac OS Extended (Journaled) formatted. Unless you know of the different file format systems and know which format to choose for your USB drive to be sure of compatibility with other systems you will get. Mac OS users are the ones who are most likely to run into this problem, so if you are a Mac user this article is definitely a must-read. Read And Write Usb And Pc Mac OS Users Are.A Finder window will open# to show the contents of the ISO. MBR tells diskutil to create a Master Boot# Record, which is necessary for the USB to be bootable.# Your Mac will "mount" the ISO as if it was a drive. WIN10 is the name of that partition (it'll appear in# Finder as the name of your USB). Make note of the name (ie, /dev/diskX).# Now we need to format the drive for MS-DOS and include a Master Boot Record.# In the command below, replace "diskX" with the identifier of your USB drive.# WARNING: this will delete everything on the USB!!Diskutil eraseDisk MS-DOS WIN10 MBR diskX# In the command above, MS-DOS is the format of the partition that will be# created on the USB.Grab a drink relax.# Once it's done, you can eject both the USB and the ISO. Now, let's cd to the ISO:# And copy all the files over to our USB:# This will take a while there's a lot of data (4+ GB). Make note of the diskX# identifier as well. The name# will differ depending on which ISO you downloaded. You should see something funny like CCCOMA_X64FRE_EN-US_DV9. This time, we're looking for what's in the NAME# column.
Read And Write Usb And Pc Download The WindowsBooting up the windows installer from the USB was successful, but at the end of the installation I hit the "Windows could not prepare the computer to boot into the next phase of installation" error. This process did not work for me for whatever reason. After part 1 and 2 our done it should tell you you're done, that's when you can do the following like the original guideThat's the thumbstick ready to plug into your pc :) from there it might be once plugging in the thumbstick and turning on your pc you may need to change boot order settings in your bios to pick on the thumbstick but that's it, hope that helpedThank you to everyone's help on this thread. If you see the UEFI option,This helped a friend get it all working but there were some extra steps, so I will just go through and break them down, hopefully, it helps someone else:Download the Windows 10 iso and leave in the downloads folderLaunch the Terminal, found in /Applications/Utilities/Type the following command string then follow the promptsAgain open terminal and type the following code below and follow on-screen prompts which were just press Enter then enter a password (if you are new to the terminal like my friend, when it asks for a password and you start to type it looks like nothing happens, but just type out your password and hit enter and it will do the install (it will take 10 - 20 mins to download and install)Then while your at it install wimlib which you will need later (if at anyone point it tells you can't install its more than likely because your not in the right directory, so just type cd to go back basically, now install wimlibNext, follow the original help guide above to line 33 so that you change to the right directoryAfter you have done that skip the rest of that guide and follow BirkhoffLee's comments, which arePaste the following code, it does not need the install.wim bit fyiRsync -avh -progress -exclude=sources/install.wim /Volumes/CCCOMA_X64FRE_EN-US_DV9/ /Volumes/WIN10After that is done you can then do the last lines they sayWimlib-imagex split /Volumes/CCCOMA_X64FRE_EN-US_DV9/sources/install.wim /Volumes/WIN10/sources/install.swm 4000This will also take some time I think 10 minutes and part 1 of two takes the longest so your percentage marker will not move for a while then jump to 91% percent so don't worry if it's not moving for at least 5 minutes, just be patient.I haven't tried this idea but it may also work. USB 2 is needed.Diskutil eraseDisk ExFAT WIN10_USB2 MBR diskX# Use rsync to copy the Windows ISO's sources directory into USB 2Rsync -avh -progress /Volumes//sources /Volumes/WIN10_USB2If others are in dire need to make this all work on a single large USB, it may be possible to create two partitions on a single USB one FAT32 and another ExFAT, and use similar steps above instead of using two USBs you will have to manage two partitions. It seems not to matter that some materials will appear on both USBs.The PC was able to boot from the FAT32 USB and it found the install.wim file (and whatever else it needed) from the exFAT USB without any additional voodoo, and completed the install successfully.I was about to go insane last night, but finally found your post about using two USB sticks during the install, and it worked out of the box like a regular USB install.I did the following - reference for others: # Get disk number of the USB drivesDiskutil eraseDisk MS-DOS WIN10_USB1 MBR diskX# I used balena Etcher and flashed the Windows ISO to USB 1.# The program didn't complain and stuffed everything onto USB 1,# but using just USB 1 for install, the Windows installer complains# about not finding some. Copy everything from the ISO onto the exFAT USB. On the same USB, create a folder called “sources”, and copy into it the one file “boot.wim” from the “sources” folder in the ISO Copy everything EXCEPT “sources” folder onto FAT32 USB (drag and drop).
