Need help with the bootmanager
« on: August 29, 2010, 13:43:15 PM »
Hello I'm new with everything so sorry if I ask silly
Questions.

My question is that I have a USB hard drive adaptor that allows me to connect an 60gb 2.5" laptop hard
Drive via USB. Is this supported by the plop USB boot feature?

Also which way should I use the boot manager? I was going to use the cd as it doesn't need to
Install and a uninstall if anything goes wrong? Thanks
