February 10, 20251 yr I was not able to boot from an usb stick created with "unraid usb creater 1.0.1" using my backup from connect, option "use customize" The bios did not recognize a bootable media. Comparing the content of the backup zip and the data on the usb stick shows that the /config and /EFI were not copied to the usb stick. After manually copying the files to the usb stick my system booted. Question 1: Why does usb creator not copy the important directories? Question 2: Is it OK to copy the missing directories or will that cause some issues? So far I only had to reenter the master password - everything else seems to work (VM, container, SMB, apps, ...) Update 2025-02-12: I also had to update the password for smb user. Edited February 12, 20251 yr by HenningK additional infos
