Boot ISO from Hard Drive Partition?

Hi Everyone,

I have done this with some other distributions. It is more efficient and, hence, more
convenient to be able to do this as burning an ISO to USB Flash drives is much much
slower than it is to write/burn to a Partition on a Hard Drive.

Is it possible to boot a Calculate Live ISO from a Partition on a Hard Drive?

If so, how should the contents, of the ISO, be extracted to the partition?

How should the partition be configured (File System?, Flags?, Label? etc)?

How should the custom.cfg file, for GRUB, be configured?

Thanks, Michael.

Of course, copy the ISO for example to /var/calculate/linux and run cl-setup-boot-live. Utilities will do everything for you :slight_smile: Also see the additional options of the utility.
