This isn't a problem as Acronis will do this perfectly fine.
If it's NTFS then it says it needs to be FAT32.Īs a result, i have to break/split the backup into 4GB sections. What i want to achieve: Having the USB stick bootable AND having the backup file on there too, so that it's an all-in-one.Īcronis wont make the USB stick (either 16GB/32GB) bootable if it's in NTFS format. I select it all the same & it just returns me back to the exact same screen. I do the same for the 32GB stick & when at the boot menu it only says "USB HDD: USB Disk". JUST bootable.Ĭurrently at the boot screen with the 16GB USB stick & it's listed as "USB HDD: Kingston DT 101 G2" & when i select it i get "Starting Acronis Loader" & all is well. I've just formatted both USB sticks as i type this & made them both bootable with Acronis but put no backup file on there. Not sure if it means anything or whether it's just the design - but the black 16GB stick has no light when plugged in, the 32GB purple stick lights up. It keeps sending me back to the boot media page (where i can select CD ROM drive, HDD, USB stick). Acronis says it makes it bootable, but when i restart the laptop & then choose to boot to the USB stick - it doesn't. So just now i decided to make the USB stick bootable to see if it would do this as a minimum. It keeps erroring with 5 minutes to go, 20 minutes to go etc. It wont install the backup to the USB stick at all. So i bought a new 32GB Kingston DataTraveler 101 USB stick, thinking this would solve the problem. tib backup on there) then the USB stick would boot fine - no problems. KEY: If i JUST made the USB stick bootable (& put no. I used Acronis True Image Home 2011 to make it bootable & to install the backup on it.ĭespite the fact that the backup & boot setting was less than 16GB, in fact it's only about 14GB, it wouldn't install to this USB stick as it kept running out of space. So i had a Kingston DataTraveler 101 16GB USB stick.
