== Requirements ==

−

You'll need a stick with more than ~~XXX~~

You'll need a stick with more space than the iso something like 800mb should do

−

Format it as ~~XXXX~~

Format it as fat, or anything should work really. I have only tested fat

−

~~mount SME~~ server image ~~on a linux machine:~~

Download the Iso image, and copy to usb drive.

−

mount /~~path~~/to/~~image~~/~~SME8b7~~.iso /mnt/~~pendrive~~

Now if youre server has 1.2gb ram or more. Make the image bootable (see later)

if not, you will need to.

ONLY do this if you dont have enough ram. The boot.iso is NOT as polished as the "real image"

mkdir /mnt/iso

mount /<usbname>/<smeiso> /mnt/iso -o loop -t iso9660

cp /mnt/iso/images/boot.iso /<usbname>

umount /mnt/iso

this will mount the iso, in mnt/iso, and copy the boot.iso to the usb stick.

and unmount the boot.iso again
