• T61p - boot from SDHC?

  Hi people,

  My drive hard t61p conked out the other day and while you wait for a replacement, I was wondering if would be possible at the start of my 8 GB SDHC card?

  I don't see any option for this in the bios (memory, he registered a usb hard drive and hard drives ata 3) but I wanted to doublecheck here just in case.

  .. And out of curiosity what would be the other hdd 2 ata? UltraBay and turbo-memory?

  Hello!

  Welcome to the forums!

  The SD card is not recognized as a USB device from where you can start the system... would highlight, perhaps because it does not require a kind of pilots to receive functions in the first place... .as opposed by a built-in USB port.

  I have no option in the BIOS to boot from the SD card in my X 61 either...

  The third ATA HDD refers to the docking adapter.

  Hope that helps!

• R100 Boot from PC CARD?

  Hello

  I own a SanDisk SDP3B 1.2 GB (industrial grade) ATA PC CARD that I am trying to make it bootable in order to run another operating system on. I also plan to put a recovery image on it with the help of Acronis image, for I can just boot from the plug to restore my computer.

  This does not work well and I did not get it works. I was wondering if someone else tried to start with a pc card with of their R100?

  Thank you
  Tim

  Hello

  In my opinion there is not enough capacity for all of the image on this map. I have no experience but try to check all the BIOS settings. Check if there is an option called Boot from other devices.

• P10-873 boot from SD card?

  Hello

  Is this possible? The BIOS has an option to toggle the SD slot so we can assume that the slot can be consulted to some extent at the BIOS level. I tried assigning removable drives to the top of the boot order and put it in an SD card with the boot of Windows 98 on it files, but it does not take this into account and starts on the hard drive. Is there a way?

  Thank you
  Mark

  Hi Mark,

  I had the same problems when I tried to boot from an SD card. I tried different settings, but it didn't start!

  So I called a technician of toshiba and they said that starting from an SD card is not possible yet. Toshba working on a solution, but we need to give them a little more time!

• Portege R500 ppr50e - boot from SD card

  Hi all

  I thought to buy a 32 GB SD card for my ppr50e r500-05402ren, so I can install Ubuntu and have a system dual boot with Windows 7.

  Does anyone know if it will work?

  See you soon,.
  Al

  Hello

  As far as I know the BIOS of the R500 is able to boot from the HARD drive, Network (LAN), FDD, USB, SD, USB, ODD USB memory.

  So if you would create a bootable Ubuntu SD then you should be able to boot from the SD card.

• Boot from the card reader

  Hello, everyone!

  I made bootable (1 GB) Flash drive and SDHC-card (8 GB) bootable.

  In the first case, I can start but in the second, I can't.

  Computer:. Presario Compaq CQ61-310ER.

  BIOS is updated.

  Card reader works fine (with card SDHC in Win7).

  What should I do?

  Hello

  I looked on this topic, and here's what I discovered:

  All storage devices that can be plugged into usb must meet the USB Mass Storage standard. There is a start of this section. If standard USB Mass Storage cannot apply in full (without standard boot section).

  Some of the old external usb card readers have no start function. All modern readers start function (the case is not proven).

  Internal drive can be connected to internal pci or usb. To start, in the first case, the bios must support 'pci boot function' (I don't know the correct name for it) and the reader must supports the start function. To begin in the second case bios must supports usb startup function and the reader must fully supports the usb mass storage standard. My player in-house to meet a basic element of the standard without start USB Mass Storage function. I found a lot of posts on this topic. If this is not a problem of my computer.

  Topmahof thank you very much for your time and your answers.

  I mark my problem as solved.

• change bios & boot from the CD

  I want to boot from a CD to run a special program that I have on a bootable CD. I tried with a bootable CD that works fine on my other pc, but it does nothing when I put it in one of the 2 CD/DVD drives before a reboot on this Dell pc.

  I can't access the BIOS on the Dell Windows XP Media Center pc. I do not see a note during boot telling me which button to hit to enter the BIOS. Maybe it is hidden, or it flashes only far too fast. I've done this before on my other pc of Windows XP that is not a Dell, as he starts slowly (it's a Tablet) and a note appears and tells me which key to hit during startup to access the BIOS.

  So, how can I get into the BIOS to check that it is configured to boot from a bootable CD?

  Usually tapping f2, F12 or Del Btn immediately on pwring on

• Satellite P100 - 277 Linux LiveCD Boot from SD card?

  Hey there, my first ever post on these forums, and I had a question.

  It is possible to unwrap a Linux live CD (like Ubuntu or Mandriva) on a 1 GB SD card (inserted in the multimedia card reader integrated course ;)) and from it?

  I tried the boot option 'Reader of floppy Boot', but it completely ignores the card reader (seems not yet-> LED is not light up at all) and one of my friend told me that this is supposed to be the boot disk... But this is no logical, portable computers first of today do not come with floppy drives, and second, all the other computers I have here call boot disks just that... Diskette or... another name clearly designating a floppy drive (something with a removable 3.5 inches)...

  So can you help me with this? I tried various Linux distributions, it does not at all.

  Well, I've never used the SD card for the start of Linux, but it s very interesting questions
  Toshiba provides a utility to clean boot on the SD card. This utility formats the SD card and copy other startup files to start the procedure.

  You can try to copy the files from linux on the SD card.
  If you want to start to the top of the SD card, you can use the F12 key immediately after the laptop boot then a start menu should appear.
  Here you can choose the SD card as a source of start-up

  But as I said I m not 100% sure if it works with the Linux files

  Hello

  Try the following.

  With the phone off, remove the USB key.  Press the Power button and immediately after, press on and hold the ESC key - if it launches the start menu?  If so, you should see the option to select the boot device (often f9 to display the start menu).

• NB510 - boot from the SD card?

  Hello

  I have a question related to booting from SD cards.
  As my NB510 has no optical device, I thought to use an SD with Linux on it to boot from.

  The reason is that sometimes I need Linux and I don't wan to lose my Windows partition or another partition of my HDD with a 2nd OS.

  My experience is that more than one OS at a disk always causes unnecessary trouble.
  Unfortunately, it seems that the NB510 does not boot from the SD card.

  I created it with the Toshiba SD Memory Format Utility and "UNetbootin" to create a card with the last OpenSUSE Linux.

  When, in from the laptop and press F2 (or F12), all available drives be filed - but not my SD card (Yes, it was inserted). BIOS Insyde H2O also doesn't seem to provide the SD card as boot drive.

  So is it possible to get my NB 510 booting from SD card?

  Greetings from the Germany

  Hello

  Why you boot from the USB flash key t n?
  As much as I know the NB510 support the start of disk HARD primary, Network (LAN), USB, USB HDD and USB WEIRD memory.

  If booting from USB is certainly possible.

• Updated table controller drivers and Firmware at boot from a SD card?

  I am in the process of upgrading vSphere 5.1 to 6.0.  All our ESXi hosts boot from SD cards and do not use table controllers local (they don't even have disks).  We had internal discussions on the need to update table controller drivers and firmware on our ESXi hosts if we do not use the table.  Those who are drivers update are firmware are concerned by the potential problems when the operating system scans the controller (either on boot for when looking for the new volumes) If firmware or drivers have been written for vSphere 4.1.  Those who are against the update drivers and firmware think that since there is no disc no problem.

  VMware has specific recommendations?

  What do other drivers of controller of berries on systems that do not use the local drive (i.e. boot from SD SAN cards, Auto deploy,).

  Thank you.

  P.S., We use servers HP Proliant DL and BL series, but I guess that would apply to any provider.

  VMware and HP support told me that if the device should not be used, then the drivers and firmware will not be updated.  We played with the idea to disable the array controller in the BIOS, but finally we decided to stay with our standard process do not update table controllers.
