Can I boot my PC through a "Bootable ISO image" stored on my Local hard drive? So that I need not to burn a CD/DVD as Bootable media.
Just like in a VMWare machine, an Acronics Bootable ISO image is stored on the Local Hard drive. By selecting option "Connect/Disconnect the CD/DVD Device of Virtual Machine -> Connect to ISO image on Local Disc, when you boot your machine, system automatically load the Acronics. I need not to insert a Bootable media into the PC.
Is this possible technique be implemented in a non-virtualized environment without installing any additionla software ? Just copy the bootable ISO image into the local machine and do the needful settings in CMOS Setup or anywhere it is applicable.
I am working as a System Test Enginer. I can't take a change to load any other 3rd party software to make this work on my test system. So want to know is this possible. I am using Windows 2008 R2 Standard SP1 & Windows 7 Professional SP1 OS.
Thanks.
