Title: startup disc
Post by: aris on August 31, 2016, 09:12:57 AM

I hope this sub forum is the right place to ask question or request an extension
Is it possible to port tcz function as startup disc or startup manager...
so I can choose on the next restart which disc is booting
Something like osx program...and some other linux application ( i think i've seen linux mint has it)

Sorry for bad english

If I understood correctly, you are asking if it is possible to set which device your machine will boot from (hard disk, usb stick, cd) the next time it boots?

With a legacy bios boot I believe you would need to change the boot order in the bios itself.

With a efi/uefi boot this might be possible, but, if so, I don't know how to do it.

Yes..
Something like startup disk on your Mac (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204417) ...or may be like Grub Customizer..


thanks for the repply.
