Ich habe versucht, dies mal nachzustellen. Allerdings klappte es bei mir sowohl mit Leerzeichen als auch Umlauten im Pfad. Ich bräuchte etwas mehr Informationen. Wie war der vollständige Pfad inlusive Dateiname bzw. wie lang war er insgesamt? Compressed image file (imz)? Welches Betriebssystem (XP/Vista/7)?

Hallo Alex,

ein Hinweis noch: es gibt Probleme mit langen Filenamen bzw. Leerzeichen im Filenamen (z.B. \Images und Backups\).
Dies erzeugt beim Zurückspielen des Images folgende Fehlermeldung:
“Could not convert internal zip file name to MBCS. Code 3″
Aber ansonsten ein tolles Tool!

long filenames or spaces produce error message:
“Could not convert internal zip file name to MBCS. Code 3″

If you have a bootable ISO and want to make a bootable USB stick from it, 9 out of 10 times unetbootin (unetbootin.sourceforge.com) will do the trick.

Since this is open source maybe you can find some info on how they did that, Alex.

Worked fine this time. I’ll let you know if it happens again.
Thanks for the .img.gz support – I wrote one out on Linux and USB Image Tool wrote it fine to a stick.

It’d be great if a future version was able to generate self contained executables which included the img file and restored themselves to the user’s choice of stick.

Thanks
David

This error code says “The system cannot find the path specified.”

I got “Could not access the usb device (Code: 3)!” when I tried to restore the empty bootsector. What does code 3 mean?
Thanks

Compression is either zip or gzip.

Sorry for the delay, I’ll take a look soon.

I have another question: USB Image Tool supports compressed images.

I’m creating my image on Linux, could you give me details of which compression scheme you’re using please so I can compress them on Linux?

Thanks

David

This still sounds strange. Does it appear as an icon in Windows Explorer? has it the flash drive icon? Does Windows try to format it, when you click on it? Can you browse the directory in the command shell?

Yes, device mode. Partition type is FAT32. There is one partition on the image.
