Re: How to install IPCOP from an USB Pendrive?

Hi

No, I had the IPCOP installing image, I wanted to creat an installer media
from my pendrive.
DD didn't work, it stopped with an error (my opearting system stpopped
running of dd). I use  64 bit Windows 7.

But it worked perfectly using the WIN32SiskImager program.

SA.
