How to create a USB boot disk from Windows 8 PowerShell

You may already be familiar with the method of creating a Windows USB boot disk for operating system booting and installing, which typically requires third-party tools such as Ultraiso,windows 7 USB tool or RM to load installation ISO image files, Copy the install binary and then use the DiskPart Disk Management tool to encapsulate the boot partition.

In WINDOWS8 now, USB boot disk is made simpler, you can no longer need third-party tools or DiskPart disk partition tools, Windows 8 itself can load ISO or VHD (virtual disk).

In the past, the process was as follows: DiskPart partition, List disk (display disk), select or create disk and partition, activate partition, format NTFS file system, through Bootsect command such as Bootsect/nt60 F: (f is File system load letter), Finally, you can copy the installation image data for startup. (third-party tools, of course, the final step will be much easier)

In Windows 8, using PowerShell (which requires elevated privileges to run for an administrator), you can follow these methods as follows:

1. Get-disk Displays the # serial number of the USB disk

2. Clear-disk # (designated as the selected USB disk number)

3. New-partition–disknumber 1–usemaximumsize–isactive: $true

4. Format-volume–filesystem Ntfs–driveletter F

5. Bootsect.exe/nt60 F:

Now that the USB disk is ready, you can install the binary via the Copy-item cmdlet copy directly after loading ISO or VHD installation media in the system.
