How to install Puppy in big memory sticks (2 TB)?

Post by oui »

I did receive today my first big memory stick with 2 Terra Bytes capacity connected with the USB 3 connector of my laptop (having itself only 3/4 TB memory). Puppy did connect. The stick includes an unique file named «IndexerVolumeGuid». Gparted recognize a /dev/sdb1 with 1,81 TB free in a size 1,81 TB. Pre used are only 62,47 MB. BootFlag is set on. The file system is named «exfat» by gparted.

I would like to install my Puppy to start directly from that memory.

Does it be possible?

What is the safe method to get an good installation with the possibility of course to use the rest of that big memory.

What is the best way to create new partitions (the same way as usual: gparted > create new table >> create one little partition >>> ev. create a casperss-rw >>>> create one or more new data papartitions with or without unetbootin)

Can unetbootin be used?
