Requirements

Note: I'm using Windows 7 - this work on Win7, should work on XP and later

Creating USB stick

  • USB Disk In
  • Run the Universal USB Installer
  • Point to the SME ISO file

ALSO:

  • Copy the SME ISO you downloaded onto the USB disk
    • SME Installation requires this image, simply copy the iso image to the USB Drive

Using

In your new Hardware ...

  1. Boot from USB
  2. Select Install from Hard Disk
  3. Choose Partition
    • Mine was /dev/sdb1 when there was a partition - it was /dev/sda1 when no partition
    • It will want to know where your .iso image is, I just hit enter (because it was in the root of my usb)

Write Grub

Long Live SME ...
