My Win 8.1 laptop couldn't read the flash drive after formatting it with GParted.
#Create image of hard drive windows 10 zilla update#
So, a problem I ran into was when I had to update my image (we decided Office 2013 was better for the Surfaces than 2010). NOTE: I got a flash drive that was only slightly larger than my image. Of course, don't let the computer format it. Don't freak out, like I did, if you plug it into your computer and it wants to format it. (Can you guess what cause me some problems?)Īt this point, your flash drive should be ready. *If it doesn't create a new partition for you, you'll need to create one with Ext4 formatting. *Create a new partition table, select GPT from the dropdown. *Once GParted opens up, select the image drive in the top right hand corner. I usually did this while GParted was still loading up. *Stick in the drive that you want to store the image on. *Boot to the flash drive (if you have a loaner computer or something, it's a good decision to use that instead of your computer) *Use the same steps as above to load the image onto a flash drive. If not, try skipping this step and boot into Clonezilla and see if your flash drive will be found. So, if you have a brand spanking new flash drive, follow the steps below. So, after MUCH trial and error, and some help from a fellow SWer, I got GParted to boot up. However, Clonezilla refused to see the drive.
I got the above listed drive, cause if USB 3.0 is good, then the Turbo in it's name must mean it's been dipped in Cheetah blood (please get the reference, please) Clonezilla saw the drive right off the bat, but that drive was slow and pitiful, and then., it randomly started overheating and sometimes. The first time I booted up Clonezilla with an external hard drive, I had no problems whatsoever.
