usb-boot - bios support - absoultely necessary?

i tried open-e nas on 2 different, modern PCs, but it didn´t work.

i could use it on lot`s of other pc`s which are free at this time, but those cannot boot from usb.

so, i`m not able to register dss lite - and free version registration ends today.

what can i do to get a useable copy of the lite version?

any chance to boot from usb second-stage , i.e. put the bootloader on hardisk, cd or floppy ?

i`d really like to use dss lite...

Roland,

I noticed today is the last day.. let me try to help...

Can you see system in the bios? does it see DSS? what specs u r using?

Just to test does it work with the DSS DEMO-CD?
