Hi,
I would like to boot from the USB on my work computer. The BIOS is locked by my company and the USB ports are inhibited. I was hoping that plop would workaround this issue. Normally when I boot up, before Windows 7 OS starts I have to enter a bitlocker password to access the C:\ drive, then the computer boots up.
After following the install instructions, I am able to see the boot manager screen and when I choose to boot from plop, the screen then changes to the bitlocker password prompt as normal and after I enter the password to unlock the HDD i get the "plpbtldr.bin: Error loading plop.bin" error.
The computer also does not have an internal CD-ROM drive attached.
I have success in running plop from my personal computer running Windows XP using the identical installation procedure.
I believe the issue has to do with bitlocker and access to the C:\ drive? I was wondering if anyone else has encounter a similar issue.
hello,
when the partition is encrypted, then its not possible to start the plop boot manager from the windows boot menu.
best regards
elmar
