    Hello all,

    I am new to UDOO. I have spend nearly half day trying to installed Windows 10 onto Mirco SD card as trying to make bootable.

    I have

    Windows 10 ISO or Windows 10 img.

    I have checked on youtube how to do it but for some reason when come partitions and it only show one which 7.3GB that been installed to Mirco SD Card even thought the storage of Mirco SD Card is 128GB !

    Can anyone help me out on how to installed Bootable Mirco SD Card.

    One more questions...How do boot to BIO of UDOO?

    thanks for reading and will be patient to wait for your reply :)

    Bottomline is that (the OP's idea) is a hack, MS won't support it nor (I think) endorse it.
    BTW, uSD has a questionable reliability issue. From an OS point of view, it does not make sense to build the foundation that way.

    It is not a hack but a feature supported by OS itself. The wizard only helps you to modify some registers, format the storage and run some stripts (which you can do all of those in CMD). You can do this manually since it is open-source and actively maintained. Reliable devices such as USB SSD (SATA ssd bridged to USB) or high-end SD card are expected. Sandisk Extreme V30 is used in that demo, which is much faster than ordinary Ultra one. The VHD method is an alternative of Wondows To Go, which is orientated to "move your personal OS anywhere".

    Reference please? I would be surprised hearing MS (in writing) saying that.

    I am looking for MS statement on supporting SD card as the boot/OS drive.
    MS can say it supports VHD as the boot drive
    (and certainly VHD or VHDx can be the drive.)

    I think the key is SDcard lacks the wear leveling and sufficient error-correction capability to be realistically used in trustworthy OS drive, at least, in a sustainable manner in reliability department.
