Ultimate Boot CD

you should be able to add windows XP to the ubcd and it would be like 2 disks in one...it would just need to be on a DVD instead because that wont fit on a normal 700mb disk...it cant be included though because of licensing issues.

well we got it tow ork so if u need help with t we can help

got ya thanks icecube your the man. it all works now.

sorry i was simply typing it using the exact case the file originally came in. my apologies for being so naive.

i added them in an attempt to see if the DSL way would work. as for the other thread i just tried those adjustments and im still getting the same error in virtualbox and window VPC any ideas?

I wanted to add puppy its small and easy or so i thought. because of the few files to work with here is my .cfg entry LABEL puppy MENU label Puppy Linux 4.2.1 KERNEL /pup/vmlinuz APPEND initrd=/pup/initrd.gz pmedia=cd BOOT_IMAGE=PUP_421.SFS PUP_421.SFS_dir=/pup these things i added.

i wish their was a thanks system on the forums you sir have solved my problem and here is how i did it. you see in the iso/sys linux.cfg files i have it appending not to "main" but to a "preboot" .cfg file. This file had a disclaimer about how powerfull the tools were etc. and ha...

hmm well it works kinda i have a preboot.cfg with a disclamer and the pic shows up their. but non of the other menus will display it. using the lines you provided. which is odd as they all read off of default.cfg so their shopuldnt be a problem? Also change menu.c32 to vesamenu.c32 in these files: K...

yes sir in .png format.

hmmm i added it to my defaults.cfg because i want it displayed on all pages however it doesnt work. my defaults.cfg contains the following and all menus call off of it. UI /syslinux/vesamenu.c32 MENU BACKGROUND /image/splash.png MENU MARGIN 0 MENU ROWS -9 MENU TABMSG MENU TABMSGROW -3 MENU CMDLINERO...

wouldnt it be "/EFI/isolinux"? or do i not specify that much? i havent tried your way yet i will im working on somnething else atm however. i was just curious. should i leave the dir of the fedora iso intact or should i pull all them and have them in the root of the EFI folder?

so i couldnt mod the cfg to point to "dir=/Mint" or any other mod like that? its just a complete fail trying to get it to run from the root of the CD it wont do it because ubuntu is already at the root and because of the files they share it becomes incredably difficult to get them to run.

all right i just did the upgrades to iso and syslinux thanks ill give it a go and let you know how it turns out

Well i wanted to try and get it to boot inside of its own folder. instead of the root of the CD because mint and ubuntu 9.04 shar alot of the same dir and files. So like i said im trying to get it to boot inside of its own folder. Of course the iso is extracted and all the dir are present. my custom...

so id like to add a background image to my current 4.xx build and i downloaded 5.0 to see how it was done..(their is alot that has gone into my custom build so id rather not do a total UG) and iv added the vesa menu updated iso and sys linux etc. here is the cide i have in my main.cfg MENU INCLUDE /...

So Ubuntu and DSL upgrades went fine...however fedora wont play nice. Now i downloaded fedora 11 and i made a "Fedora" folder at the root of my disk. i then copied the dir from the fedora iso and put them in this "Fedora" folder. After that i looked at fedoras isolinux.cfg and ad...
