Hi guys,

I was wondering if it is possible to boot from a USB thumb drive with the TR2MP. And does anybody tried yet ?

Also, if it is possible, is there anyway to have a linux boot on this thumb drive and where I can find it ?

Thanks for your help.

Julien.

Tip: niet alle PC’s zijn instaat van een USB disk te starten. Kijk of jouw PC dit kan door te kijken welke BIOS instellingen beschikbaar zijn. Update eventueel de BIOS van je PC.

As this implies, it’s a BIOS setting and I don’t think the TR can boot from a USB key. We’ve had this discussion before about flash card readers, and IIRC the only external device the TR can boot from is the Sony USB floppy drive.
