Installing XenServer 6.2.0 from a USB Stick

  • Download the XenServer 6.2.0 ISO image

  • Format a USB stick using FAT32.

  • Use unetbootin to install the ISO to the USB stick. Use the “DiskImage” option instead of the “Distribution” one, and point it right to the ISO file.

  • Now we need to fix up some boot stuff (All paths are relative to the root of the USB drive)

    • mv boot/isolinux/isolinux.cfg boot/isolinux/syslinux.cfg
    • mv boot/isolinux boot/syslinux
    • mv syslinux.cfg syslinux.cfg.bak

  • Unmount the USB drive and eject it.

  • Boot from the USB stick.
