● You have a USB flash drive (e.g. SIMATIC PC USB flash drive)
To create a bootable USD flash drive, proceed as follows:
1. Connect the USB flash drive to a USB interface of the PCU.
2. Start Symantec Ghost, for example, by entering
Ghost32.exe in the search bar in the start
menu.
3. In Symantec Ghost, select the "From Image" command from the "Local > Disk" menu.
4. Select
D:\Eboot\eboot.gho as the source and the USB flash drive as the destination.
The Emergency Boot System is installed on the USB flash drive and the data medium is
renamed to "EBOOT." The service system on the bootable USB flash drive can now be
used.
