WwWell .. hmmm .. for what step by step you want ?
If you mean usb boot .. we are so lost away from your thread and that is illegal .. sorry admin
beside It will take some time to write how to make usb flash bootable ...

I'll open a thread explains that ..



Add :
Nothing is step by step when it comes to an advanced work .. Just like that I can't tell you that the golden pins in the Ram is down in the slot !! .. That code is step by step IF you have the Hiren's CD.

Okay, ill attempt too just one last question, withh the commands i have to enter, do i use the command prompt on windows or linux??

You can just run off a Linux Boot-CD.

okay so i installed linux (5 days later) and i did ubuntu, when i enter in mkfs.vat -f32 i always get
mkfs.vfat 3.0.9 (31 Jan 2010)
Bad number of FATs : 32
Usage: mkdosfs [-a][-A][-c][-C][-v][-I][-l bad-block-file][-b backup-boot-sector]
[-m boot-msg-file][-n volume-name][-i volume-id]
[-s sectors-per-cluster][-S logical-sector-size][-f number-of-FATs]
[-h hidden-sectors][-F fat-size][-r root-dir-entries][-R reserved-sectors]
/dev/name [blocks]
I tried to change the fats to 64 and 86 but no dice, now what??
