    Or use internal HDD. I have PTS enabled anyway, so runs fine.

    Go to plugins. Download openmultiboot from extensions. Put new image in folder "open-multiboot-upload". In plugins menu select openmultiboot and install the second image.

    It works nicely on my solo2 using the hdd. I would imagine an ssd drive might be better in the long term.

    Hi All

    thanks for your advise so far, I am still struggling to achieve a multiboot system.
    not sure about whether I should be using the USB image or whether I need to get an image elsewhere, if so do I need to install the USB image and back it up and then use the backed up image?, please forgive my ignorance

    regards
