ArcaOS USB installation - Rufus?
Wendy Krieger:
Rufus does not even work on home-brew windows 7 isos either.

Hi Wendy,
actually I used successfully Rufus with the Windows 7 ISOs provided by microsoft (I happen to have two or three valid license keys and already used them). Rufus failed me when I tried to create a bootable linux distro for an old netbook, so it's clearly a YMMV situation.

Wendy Krieger:
Rufus apparently makes some rather obscure checks on the system.
In the end, i used some other proggie easyusb (from the people who make BCDedit.)
Wendy Krieger:
As to Windows 10, my brother's opinion of it was to request me to order in an OEM base install of windows 7.
We followed some advice and disabled a whole lot of things, and Win10's idea was to download fixes and install + uninstall them. You boot the computer and go have dinner before it had finished booting.

WOW, this is insane. Still can't figure how could go so bad for OS/2, given the competitors' level...
