dual boot - WinUSB error mounting Windows 10 on external hard drive - Ask Ubuntu


i trying dual boot here , when trying create external hard drive windows 10 bootable made winusb gave following error:

installation failed ! exit code: 256 log: formatting device... wait 3 seconds block device nodes populate... mkfs.fat: warning - lowercase labels might not work dos or windows mkfs.fat 4.0 (2016-05-06) mounting... copying... installing grub... installing i386-pc platform. installation complete. no error reported. installing grub.cfg... exiting... syncing... /usr/bin/winusb: line 78: 1148 terminating while true; sleep 0.05; echo 'pulse'; done cleaning... /usr/bin/winusb: line 78: 1294 terminating while true; sleep 0.05; echo 'pulse'; done unmounting , removing '/media/winusb_iso_1478797225_29588'... unmounting , removing '/media/winusb_target_1478797225_29588'...

i researched different winusb solutions , none worked, did not show failed, when boot system through usb said system not found. have idea problem , how solve this?

windows not boot external drives. think way keep people using same windows license in more 1 computer.

but can install ubuntu in external drive or make persistent live usb boot drive, , in ubuntu install virtualbox , in virtualbox create install windows 10. way windows in same [virtual] machine time, if virtual machine run on different hardware.

-o-

however, think asking problem, , think using tool winusb create windows install drive (in usb stick). seems there problems winusb , new versions of ubuntu, added feature mkusb-nox. see these links,

mkusb

mkusb version 7.5 - mkusb-nox

making usb drive install windows

if willing test new version better user interface, not yet tested much, , still in unstable mkusb ppa, can try according following link,

dus - revamped interface of mkusb , mkusb-nox
