The virtual machine boots OK from USB, but after pressing "Install Now" button in Windows installer, it prompts for the location of a lacking CD/DVD controller and doesn't proceed. Method 2: Boot using ploplinux Live CD (ISO) Method 1: Boot using "VBoxManage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename C:\usb.vmdk -rawdisk \\.\PhysicalDrive#"īoot failed with an error message (can't recall) about some ACCESS DENIED It's the Windows installer that had some problems.

In the other two cases the virtual machine booted just fin.

The boot part was easy (except in one case). I tried three different methods to boot from USB, but unfortunately, none worked.

Has anyone been able to actually do this?
