How to create a bootable USB from any ISO

 

Creating a bootable USB has become very common. More than once it has happened to us that we have been to install an operating system and could not find the installation disk or was shredded.

Even we can also come to think it's silly to buy a CD to save an OS and not to use it more often. Because of all these situations and many more were invented boot-able USB.  Well, today we will learn how to create one.

 

 

For several years now we can take our Platform in our pocket or keychain. I mean keep our Platform USB ready to install on any PC.

And although, as I said, is nothing new, many people either do not know how to copy it or deny it for the sake of the CD, today we show you how quick and easy it can be to install an operating system on a USB.

Previously did a tutorial in which we explained how to install Windows 8 from a USB , but following this tutorial we can install any OS and any distribution. Not just the typical Windows or Linux, but also can install Backtrack, Ubuntu or open-SUSE, to give some examples.

What we need

• A formatted USB.
• A bootable ISO image of the operating system you want to install.
• The program UltraISO .
• A BIOS that supports booting from USB (Although for several years, all support it).

How to create a bootable USB

1. 'll start installing UltraISO and connecting our USB memory.

Two. Once installed, I opened UltraISO and we select the image you want to copy to the USB.

Three. we click on Boot and select Burn disc image.

April: Upon previous step a window will appear. We seek paragraph unit and select the drive where our memory is mounted USB and finally click on Save.

May: Done! We already have our bootable USB with the OS ready to install.

Now we can take our favorite operating system in our jacket pocket ready to install in the situation that you least expect.

How to install from USB

1. We insert our USB, if any expelled. We turn off your computer and enter the BIOS.

The process to access the BIOS varies depending on the computer, but usually when you start a small legend appears at the bottom showing the key you must press to access the BIOS.

February. Section Boot USB select first choice , or specifically the USB that contains the OS as I do.Depends on the BIOS screen varies, but they are practically the same. Save and left.

March. Once your PC is started, begin installing our operating system . From here we just need to follow the steps you indicate the installation guide.

After following these few steps, and we have learned to create a bootable USB and install it . We can see that it is extremely easy and has many more advantages than a Live CD, plus you can use it for any OS.
