1.5. Preparing for Installation from USB Storage Drives

To install Virtuozzo Hybrid Server from a USB storage drive, you will need a 2 GB or higher-capacity USB drive and the Virtuozzo Hybrid Server 7 distribution ISO image.

Make a bootable USB drive by transferring the distribution image to it.

Important

Be careful to specify the correct drive to transfer the image to.

On Linux, you can use dd:

# dd if=<VZ7_ISO_image> of=/dev/sdb

On Windows, you can use Rufus:

  1. In the Drive Properties section, select your flash drive from the Device drop-down menu and click SELECT. Then, select the distribution image from your local machine.

  2. Click START.
