ROS终于支持USB启动了

Summary
The latest version of the RouterOS (starting from v3.0rc5) there is a support for booting from USB devices has be added. This new feature allows you to test your PC how it would work as a router. Also it could be a good option to run the RouterOS from USB with the newest version to test out how well it is performing. It means that you can install the RouterOS on the USB flash/drive.

Installation
To install the RouterOS on the USB you can use CD-Install or Netinstall from the latest versions of the RouterOS (starting form v3.0rc5). Also it is possible to attach that USB drive to a Windows computer and copy the RouterOS installation files using Netinstall to the USB drive and when booting this USB drive it would install the RouterOS on it.

Media Capabilities with Motherboards and Laptops
Since there are lot of USB media types, below are notes for most of that which have been tested.

USB hard drive
USB Flash Stick
On Gigabyte GA-8I945P-G-RH motherboard that are using (945 chipset) you need to go in the BIOS and specify to boot the from the USB-HDD. If you have another hard drive installed in the same PC then you should also specify the boot priority. For the Gigabyte motherboard in the BIOS it gives two options regular harddrive that you have installed and Bootable add-in drives. You should specify the Bootable add-in cards. After the first reboot if it didn't boot from the usb drive, you need to reboot once more and go into the same section and there you will see a new boot option - the usb flash drive name.

USB Card Readers
Not only USB flash/drives can be uses, also USB card readers can be used. In these USB Card readers you can plug any media (CF, SD, xD, etc) and use that as a bootable device to run RouterOS. But there could be problems with these Card readers as sometimes it is not recognized as a bootable device in BIOS - such thing happened on the Intel DG965WH motherboard (965 chipset), but it worked on Gigabyte GA-8I945P-G-RH motherboard (945 chipset). It could be because of the motherboard BIOS and that shouldn't affect the regular USB flash/drives.

Additional Notes
The booting support for the USB drives is the part of the BIOS, so if your motherboards BIOS doesn't allow to boot from that drive you might try to upgrade the BIOS of the motherboard.

无盘 ROS 很快就很多人弄了

启动 USB KEY 然后拔走

怎么把ROS文件写到U盘里啊~!

cracks 发表于 2007-9-20 20:08:09

又有新想法了?还是稳定为最重新的,加新功能扩展才是正路。

居然连读卡器都可以,CF卡、SD都可以装ROS,强啊,现在没有条件测试,没有高档的板子!

因为routeros使用了最新的2.6内核,2.6内核使用libata驱动,支持的存储介质更多了。

建议研究解决一些实际的东西,

什么时候能用上?严重关注!

u盘跟软盘差不多,太不稳定了,说不行就行的.怕怕......

有了USB版本就实在太方便了。!~

比如:你可以把安装好的USB版本准备好。至于机器无所谓。插上就可以配置了。

在配置路由器的时候准备些。256的U盘即可了。

激动人心的消息啊!

我最关心什么时候支持 SCSI 和 SAS 才是王道

peterchen 发表于 2007-9-21 13:25:09

呵呵....我也期待中

太期待了。

USB设备在路由和防火墙上也没什么用。。。

我们那台港湾的破墙还有个外置CF口,也就升级个OS时能充当个试验而以。。。
