Ok, so I've never used winusb, so excuse me for asking a few dumb questions |
8 |
here. Even after reading a bit and searching around, I have these dumb |
9 |
questions. I did not find sufficient reading materials to 'turn the light on' |
10 |
as to when and why and how this winusb is used. |
11 |
|
12 |
1. So winusb can put a window (vista-->8) image on a usbstick that will |
13 |
boot most x86 orx86-64 hardware with the appropriate windows binary? |
14 |
The hardware can then be installed with the windows image? |
15 |
|
16 |
2. winusb can be used as a live_windows on a linux system where changes |
17 |
are retain on the usb stick? |
18 |
|
19 |
3. winusb can be used to install windows in a VM? |
20 |
|
21 |
4. winusb can be used to install windows in a container? |
22 |

Any links to reading materials or explanations as to these ideas |
25 |
are most welcome. |
