VMWARE / VBOX etc - Boot VM from USB drive to install GUEST OS
Hi there
Most VM programs allow you to boot from an ISO image -- useful when installing the Guest OS for the first time.
Since now DVD's are going the way of the DODO isn't about time these Virtual Machine software manufacturers such as VMWARE and ORACLE(VBOX) to allow booting from a USB stick for installing the Guest OS. Would need a change in the Virtual BIOS but shouldn't be too difficult to implement.
Windows itself is now going to be distributed on a USB stick.
I can see the ridiculous situation of people having to CREATE an ISO from a USB drive / stick !!!! -- Turn round for the book !!.
