Does Sardu support Windows 8.1 ISO? I have legitimate 8.1 install media, made an ISO which works fine with Microsoft's USB creator. I'd like to add it to my Sardu multiboot. I named it "InstallWin8.iso" and put it in my ISO folder. But I cannot check the box next to it! I also tried adding it as an extra, and either I didn't know what parameters to put, or it would add it (as shown in the size box) but it wouldn't actually put it on the USB.

My iso is named InstallWin8_64.iso

[jb0nez]

Renamed my iso, still can't check the box.

The file is in iso folder?

Please continue here the discussion, no Facebook

[jb0nez]

Yes of course. Same ISO folder as all my other ISOs. They all work fine.

I just can't check Windows Eight. I can check and uncheck any other ISOs I have.

After deleting and putting the SAME iso file back in the ISO directory, I can now check Windows Eight. However SARDU can't process the ISO - when it gets to it, the report says:

Windows 8 : installwin8.iso

This ISO was made directly from an 8.1 x64 install DVD using ImgBurn....

I made a new ISO, using Winmount. Didn't know it could do that. Anyway the size is different by a few hundred bytes - and at this very moment SARDU is processing the files!
I don't know what or what...but maybe this will now work....if anyone is paying attention...

[jb0nez]

Didn't work. Processed the ISO, but it's not on the boot menu.

Your Installer of Windows have the Boot folder? And the Sources Folder? Are standard?
If NO .....
