How to make a bootable USB-drive
Be careful, these commands will erase all contents on the USB-drive! If you choose a wrong disk number you may delete files on your local hard drive!
Run these commands in an Elevated Command Prompt (Start -> cmd -> ctrl-shift-enter):
diskpart
list disk
select disk #
clean
create partition primary
select partition 1
active
format quick fs=fat32
assign
exit
# is the drive number of your USB drive. Be sure to select right number because clean-command will erase the whole USB-drive or drive selected!
Copy the GBNP WinPE files from folder
"ISO-copy-contents-of-this-directory-to-your-usb-drive-after-diskpart-to-make-bootable-USB-drive"
to your USB-drive with copy/paste or with this command:
xcopy C:\temp\gbnp\ISO-copy-contents-of-this-directory-to-your-usb-drive-after-diskpart-to-make-bootable-USB-drive\*.* E:\ /e /f
Here the "E:\" would be your USB-drive letter.
