I would probably set all my rubber points here to get some real help for creating a boot device on a usb-stick. There is no CD-drive on this machine, thats why I need to use a usb-stick. And scrumming in a CD-drive to fuddle around in the fstab or something like that is out of reach.
My wisdom so far told me to type the following code to shovel the iso to the usb-stick, but under bsd it does not.
the bsd root terminal tells me
no matter if upper or lower case the x, no other explanation naming the device sdc1, sdb1.
Another commandline like
gives me no result either. The usb-stick is formatted, but even typing in the root terminal
it tells me
I am using ghostbsd.
Any hints are highly appreciated. Thanks in advance. to correct my error I typed
to make it work on a non-BSD system I would furthermore type
but I get the message
Doing so,
I spend the weekend and more time reading and testing all ways to format that usb-stick, so may there is someone who can give me a clue and to get the iso on that same usb-drive. The only information about the usb-drive with Gsmartcontrol about the usb-drive and gpart in the root terminal I can get is the following, one shows me the entire 8GB, command line tells the following
some other attempts to wipe out the partition or slice
May someone can help, thanks in advance.
