How to create a bootable WIN7 USB flash disk?

  1. Connect the USB drive On a Win7 Machine
  2. Partition the USB disk drive NTFS, if the disk is large (i.e. 1TB, reduce active partition to say, 6GB, I used gparted on Linux ;-p)
  3. Run DISKPART in command line
  4. LIST DISK
  5. SELECT DISK n (n is the number matching the USB disk obtained above)
  6. CLEAN
  7. CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY
  8. then copy the content of the DVD with XCOPY e:\*.* /s /e /f j: (e: = CD drive, j: = USB drive)
