3.4 Booting from the DataStation
3.4.2 Windows 2000/XP
Windows 2000/XP does not support a bootable USB hard disk. You can find an ISO-CD-Image of
FreeDOS in the folder
tools
n
bootable
on the TrekStor installation CD. You can write it on CD
with any common CD-Writer program. Make sure you don’t just copy the Image file but actually
write the Image to CD using the option of your program for that purpose. Only if the CD has
been created that way, it will boot. As FreeDOS supports USB, you can install it directly on your
DataStation . Follow the instructions during installation.
For further information about FreeDOS refer to: www.freedos.org.
NOTICE: Remember that the partition on the DataStation has to be activated in
order to boot. You can activate the partition under
