Default create a bootable USB installation disk - 10-08-2009, 05:43 PM

I'm sure this has been answered elsewhere but my searching was unable to find it. Right now I have my bootloader on one USB drive and my OSX installation disk on another USB drive. Is there a simple way to combine these on to a single USB drive?

Yes, if you are already running OS X. Use Netbook BootMaker.

Otherwise, not yet. There have been discussions about a way to do this for Windows users in the works, but I know very little beyond that.

And there is no roadmap in place for this either... it was merely a mention that it is possible to do.

Cool, thanks, I will look into this as soon as I get my system back up and running.
