Either way thanks for sharing this dude, good job!!

You can I link to a version of dd for windows in the tutorial, and I believe you'll have to run it as an admin. As for the drive path I'm not sure what you'll have to put in.

dd --list would be a good starting point

I'm on dd 8.21 and I just checked the man pages and I can't find a --list flag, what version are you on?

Quote:Using --list

Windows provides a number of ways to name a device. The --list will output the preferred names. Under NT4, only the \\?\Device\Harddisk<n>\Partition<n> method is available. Partition0 is the entire disk. Under Windows XP, some partitions may not have a Volume device. In this case you can still use the Harddisk<n>\Partition<n> name.

Windows 2000 and later have Volume devices which are unique GUIDs which identify a disk or partition (what MS call a Volume). These are listed along with any mount point that they may be mounted on. Most of the time this is a drive letter but it may be a path on another filesystem. If you want to read the underlying device, do not include the trailing \ character. If the volume is not mounted there is no easy way to identify it so be careful. Under XP SP2, many partitions can not be read directly, even if they are not in use. There is a work around which I call reading partitions via the back door.

1. Install/download dd from above link
   
2. Open an admin command prompt
   
3. discover primary disk from running "dd --list"
   
4. Run this following "dd if=c:\path\to\boot.bin of=\\?\Device\Harddisk1 bs=512 count=1"
   
5. reboot
