Hello dear Tek Syndicate users

I have run into some problems while trying to make a live USB with openSUSE. I followed the guide on openSUSEs site https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Create_a_Live_USB_stick_using_Windows about how to create a live USB using GRUB4DOS.

I manage to start it up and i get into a grub menu where i load the linux kernel and the initrd file before i boot

It then starts to load all drivers and manage to do that perfectly, the next screen i am then presented to is this

Everything is plugged in and the USB have the openSUSE 13.2 64 bit ISO image, a reason for the failure may be that the USB is 32 GB or that it is formatted as NTFS(the ISO is over 4 GB so FAT 32 isn't a possibility, but exFAT may work, I don't know). I can hit retry as many times as i want too, but yeah it doesn't exatcly help... So then i try to press no and i am presented with this

I go on and press Installation get a menu asking for source medium and i select my USB since it is here all my openSUSE files is. Then it asks for Source directory

This is where i get stumped, as i don't know what exatcly it is asking fo i just tried a lot of the different possibilities as setting it to the ISO image, the linux kernel, the initrd file and even files within the ISO.

Any help is appriciated.

Things about the computer and USB that might help:
MSI P67A-G46 motherboard
Intel LGA1155 I7-2600K CPU
XFX Radeon HD6950 2GB graphics card
The USB is a SanDisk Ultra USB 3.0 32 GB, formatted as NTFS

Did you use a live image? and why not use the tool they provided Image USB, i've had success using that tool.

I did not use the Image USB as it states in their page that the image you copy to a flash drive is going to take up the whole flash, and i wanted to be abel to use the 32 GB of the USB flash drive instead of just the 4,7 GB the image would take up

You can reformat it later after you've installed it use the image usb and deal with it.

Im trying to use it as a live USB not just an installation medium.

6

The ISO you downloaded is just an install iso, not live environment. In the download page select the alternative media options http://software.opensuse.org/132/en
