I want to install Windows 7 to a UEFI-compatible netbook that only has a SD Card slot and a single USB Port (the netbook I'm refering to is the CR-48 if anyone is curious)
I know this computer supports UEFI (I was able to start the Fedora 14 EFI and Win7 x64 EFI installers) but my assumption is that EFI-based OS installs require you to have the disc inserted (both installers failed to actually load)
Anyone have an idea on a solution for this other then to buy a External DVD drive?
EDIT: I may be on to something, but I'll find out shortly
I also have similar posts:
Windows 7 + UEFI Based Install + SD Card/USB Drive = Fail?
Ubuntu/Windows 7/Other Linux OS... and UEFI!
