Windows.iso boot problem

    Hello,

    Is there any way how to boot Windows.iso? Linux works, but Windows doesn't.
    Mount mode is flash drive. CD-ROM mode not working either.

    1. Unfortunately, CD-ROM mode can read only the first 2.36 GB of the file, and most Windows ISOs are larger than that. We're investigating how we can solve this, but there unfortunately isn't a good fix at the moment. Windows ISOs seem to expect to be mounted in CD-ROM mode.

      I believe it should be possible to create a custom Windows ISO that's stripped down so it fits in the 2.36 GB limit, though I haven't yet tried this.
