I need to install WXPPro on an external USB HD (Lacie Pocket Drive, 30Gb)
connected to my Asus L5G laptop. Ineed to switch between OS versions for demo
pruposes.
The external HD has been partitioned and formated. 2 Primary partitions.
The HD is recognized by the Bios and appears in the HD list Windows setup is
showing when asking to select a partition where the installation should be
done. However Windows refuse to install on the selected external partition.
Is this normal? Is it impossible to install on an external drive? Windows
reports a problem similar to the one occuring when using a SCSI drive for
which you don't have the driver. But no driver is proposed for USB drive at
this stage... :-(
