I have an updated kernel for CPUstress:

Because this is only a kernel update, I don't want to make a new CPUstress release just for it.

I'll post updates of my (Explorer09's) modified XFPROT in this thread.

I just did an experiment to the rescue disk. It seems that the disk is based on a Gentoo LiveCD. Now this gives me an idea: is it possible to convert this rescue disk into a PMagic module? I know this will be a difficult task and it might be against Kaspersky's license, so I won't do this.

@jhorak101 It seems that you're new to this forums, so: 1. Please don't make multiple posts for your questions. Some people will think this is impolite. If you're asking several questions at once, you should try editing your last post to include all your questions. 2. Winzip can open read most of th...

If you guys read the Parted Magic changelog recently, you will notice that they now include PCLoginNow in their next version of PMagic.

Parted Magic 2013_06_14 is released, and I hope ady can test his pm2ubcd script with this version of PMagic. And one more thing. I should have noticed this before but I didn't. In ubcd/menus/syslinux/pmagic2.txt To find out the available devices/partitions, launch Mount Devices in the taskbar and st...

Regarding the PMagic version number in "main.cfg", I think it is good to display a warning that "you have to change it manually" in the script. When I helped ady making the pm2ubcd script, I added a variable (PMAGIC_VERSION) that displays the PMagic version, just for this purpose...

Curious, why not just have one script connect to the other script? So after merge, have option to choose one of the other commandline/shell scripts to, for instance, run ubcd2iso with the parameters that were added? This will increase coupling between two scripts, and decrease modularity. I disagre...

You better verify the checksum of the UBCD first before making a report here. Your problem sounds like you have a corrupt UBCD ISO image.

In "ubcd/tools/linux/ubcd2usb/readme.txt": 5. Mount the partition of your USB drive You can use the GUI mounting utility of your distribution. If your distribution mounts USB drives automaticly, you can remove and replug your USB thumb drive. 6. Copy all files of the extracted UBCD iso to ...

I believe this problem is already fixed upstream. At least my test result in pmagic_2013_05_01_i586 is fine.

I bring a good news for everyone. A few days before, I filed a feature request to the Grub4dos developers about supporting color names in the new syntax. Well, they made it recently in the new version (grub4dos-0.4.5c-2013-05-14). This means that I can change the numeric value syntax: color standard...

[T]here is no method to prevent someone from modifying the cmd script as if it were independent of the sh script (and they are not 100% independent). And that's the potential (future) problem. It would be enough with very simple changes to the cmd script, and the backslash could be back. [......] S...

Finally, I partially "moved" the code to handle "backslash characters in paths" into the cmd script. I left this sed code in the sh script, just in case (for some reason) some backslash character gets to that point in the code, which could potentially change the resulting paths....
