RedditIs it possible to use some sort of tool (Like universal usb installer) to make a Kolibri USB installer? I have tried to use the tool, but it gives an error about not being able to find a certain file with /NULL popping up on the screen. I just can't find anywhere if it's possible. Thanks for your time.

(If anyone needs I can use the tool and again and take a screenshot to show the error.)

Which tool exactly did you use? KolibriOS has its own USB stick installation tool.
1. run inst.exe (folder HD_load\USB_Boot)
2. choose your drive (example E:\ [USB name])
3. Copy kolibri.img to your USB stick
Try to boot from this USB stick. If KolibriOS doesn't boot, then in addition:
4. run setmbr.exe (folder HD_load\USB_Boot)
5. choose your drive (example E:\ [USB name])
1. run inst.exe (folder HD_load\USB_Boot)
2. choose your drive (example E:\ [USB name])
3. Copy kolibri.img to your USB stick

I made a one step installer for windows named kinst.exe.

Greetings from Seppe
I did that exactly. But what I'm trying to do is to make an installer from a USB. I have a laptop that only has a 4.0 GB SSD on it. It has no operating system and I wanted Kolibri to be the only operating system on the laptop. I want to be able to boot from the USB, then install it from the USB. That way it is a permanent system on the laptop.

You have to be more specific in your question next timejake530 wrote:I did that exactly. But what I'm trying to do is to make an installer from a USB.

KolibriOS cannot install itself yet (we haven't added that feature yet). To install KolibriOS on a hard disk / SSD when no other operating system exists there, you have to use another operating system besides KolibriOS. You can install GRUB (or GRUB4DOS) for example, and then boot KolibriOS from it: http://wiki.kolibrios.org/wiki/Booting_from_GRUB
Alright. Thank you! I'll try that as soon as I can.
