How to use limine-deploy(solved)

Post by Thanos »

There is a limine-deploy.exe in this page:

Code: Select all

https://github.com/limine-bootloader/limine/tree/v4.x-branch-binary

In order to install Limine on a MBR device (which can just be a raw image file), run limine-deploy as such:

limine-deploy <path to device/image>

Use limine-deploy to install Limine on a usb disk in linux:

Code: Select all

limine-deploy /dev/sda

Use limine-deploy.exe to install Limine on a usb disk in windows:

Code: Select all

limine-deploy.exe \\.\PhysicalDrive1

You need to provide configure options. Have a look at the OpenEmbedded recipe used to compile it for Easy:

I can use limine-deploy in easyos, but how can I use limine-deploy.exe to install Limine on a usbdisk in windows?

...

What is the "path to device" in windows?

Perhaps an answer here :
https://community.silabs.com/s/article/ ... evice-path

It seems much more complicated than with linux

I have found the correct way:

Code: Select all

limine-deploy.exe \\.\PhysicalDrive1

The "path to device" in windows is "\\.\PhysicalDrive1" for the first usb disk.
