Hello all,

While bulding a Multiboot USB flash drive from a microSDHC card, SDHC adapter card and a SDHC card reader to USB adapter.
I realized my Computer would not recognize the USB flash drive, so through many searches and webpages on the internet, I came across Plop, thank you Elmar for making this software and then downloaded it, burnt a CD from the provided iso and nothing but a blinking cursor after selecting the CD/DVD drive via the Computers boot menu.
After reading through many pages here as well, I come to find out that Plop does not support Internal SATA CD/DVD Drives to boot other operating systems from SATA CD/DVD/USB Drives.
Many attempts and disks later, here is the soultion of what I did to get to get Plop to work on a Computer with a Internal SATA CD/DVD Drives to boot other operating systems from SATA CD/DVD/USB Drives.
In layman terms what happens that it makes a CD/DVD of Plop into a Virtual Floppy A:\ that boots from the computers RAM, instead of the disk itself, which means that SATA CD/DVD Drives can boot other operating systems from SATA CD/DVD/USB Drives, since Plop is not actually booting from a Internal SATA CD/DVD Disk.
Note: This was done in a Windows 7 Environment not Linux, it should not matter which version of Windows is used to create this CD/DVD, if anyone let's me know i'll try to add/fix this tutorial to refelect this changes, if possible anyone that can do this using Linux feel free to add any input you can or how to this tutorial.
I'm not responsible for errors of any sort, follow the directions exactly, and all should be fine!
