I owe my soul to the Bitcoin code...
There are only 2 ways to get BAMT to boot on that crap mobo. (I have it as well) Smiley

Put the BAMT image on a hard drive and boot that (easy way)

Boot plop on one small usb stick or cd then chain load BAMT from a second usb stick. (you may have to remove the plop usb stick first)

I don't think anyone has managed to get it down to 1 usb stick that contains plop and BAMT. (I never could) Grin

Did you go into your BIOS & set the device as First Boot Device Huh Instead of HHD or CD ROM............

Okay, I'm going insane trying to figure this out.... I have a Gigabyte 990fxa-UD3 motherboard and I'm trying to run BAMT without a HDD. So I did what was recommended on this forum post and used unetbootin to flash a USB drive with plopKexec, but when I boot it up, it says "Missing operating system" over and over and over.

If I unplug the USB while the message is flashing, it then says "DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER".

Can anyone please help?

Thanks
