    Can't create a Macrium Boot entry when creating boot media


    Has anyone run into this problem?
    I am attempting to create a rescue media on my 2nd hard drive in a 4GB partition, the process makes it all the way through the process to the point of creating a boot menu entry, then fails with an error that says:
    "Macrium add boot menu failed an error has occurred copying the ram disk file."
    I've tried it with Secure Boot enabled and disabled.
    Windows version 21H1 (OS Build 19043.1165)
    Macrium version 8.0.6036. Registered home version.
    I've submitted a ticket with Macrium but I'm curious if anyone else has seen this issue.

    OK, guys and gals, I succeeded by going a different route.
    I had Macirum create an ISO file, mounted it, and copied the files and folders to my "E" partition.
    Rebooted the computer and pressed escape to get into the Bios boot menu.
    There it was, the option to boot to Marcium on my "E" partition.
    I prefer this way anyway.
    I will let you know when I receive a reply to my outstand ticket to Macrium in case anyone else runs into this problem in the future.
    Marked as solved for now.
    Can't give myself a rep though.

    That is what I did but didn't bother with the adding the boot menu option though. Thanks for the reply.

    Glad you got it solved. You should also take a look at Ventoy. You can put virtually any iso on it and it will boot from UFEI or MBR and give you a menu selection for any of the ISO’s. Very cool. Ventoy iso bootloader EASY installs from usb for any iso os file
