Adding *both* Acronis True Image & Disk Director to UBCD

I can add Acronis TI to my UBCD 4.1.1 without a hitch, but when I repeat the same process for Acronis DD, it failed to work.
When I select DD from the menu, I got "shelled out" and promted to "press enter to activate the console". After that, I'm stuck in the shell and can only do a ctrl-alt-del to get out of the loop.
My custom.cfg file modified to add TI & DD:
Code: Select all
MENU INCLUDE /menus/defaults.cfg
LABEL back
MENU LABEL ..
KERNEL menu.c32
APPEND /menus/main.cfg
LABEL DD10
MENU LABEL Acronis Disk Director 10 Full
KERNEL /custom/acronis/DD10/kernel.dat
APPEND rw vga=788 acpi=off initrd=/custom/acronis/DD10/ramdisk.dat /s ramdisk_size=20480 quiet
LABEL TI11
MENU LABEL Acronis True Image 11 Full
KERNEL /custom/acronis/TI11/kernel.dat
APPEND initrd=/custom/acronis/TI11/ramdisk.dat /S quiet vga=791 load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 ramdisk_size=32000
LABEL bootimg
MENU LABEL Your own boot image here
KERNEL memdisk
APPEND initrd=/custom/boot.img
I got the kernel.dat and ramdisk.dat for DD straight from my C: drive under the C:\Program Files\Acronis\Acronis Disk Director folder.
Could anyone provide some pointers on how to get *both* Acronis TI and DD onto UBCD?

Can you make the iso of Acronis DD and post the isolinux.cfg file which is inside the iso (or burn it to a RW)?

Increase your ramdisk. The below set-up should work.
Code: Select all
LABEL DD10
MENU LABEL Acronis Disk Director 10 Full
KERNEL /custom/acronis/DD10/kernel.dat
APPEND vga=788 mbrcrcs=on load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 ramdisk_size=32000 initrd=/custom/acronis/DD10/ramdisk.dat /S
LABEL TI11
MENU LABEL Acronis True Image 11 Full
KERNEL /custom/acronis/TI11/kernel.dat
APPEND vga=788 mbrcrcs=on load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 ramdisk_size=32000 initrd=/custom/acronis/TI11/ramdisk.dat /S

Provided you can extract the ramdisk and kernel dat file, yes.

You'll need IsoBuster to extract the necessary files.

Right-click on Track 1 and select "Find missing files and folders". Once the scan is finished, you should be able to find the necessary files.

Ok work fine, thanks.
I have two questions
APPEND vga=788 mbrcrcs=on load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 ramdisk_size=32000 initrd=/custom/aechou/ramd2.dat /S
It appears what is loaded.
how does it continue after the shell (console ?)
what is mbrcrcs=on ?

I forgot to add "quiet" to the end of the command...

?? sorry. I don't understand. Does the program not launch?

I have no clue. ((-:
What happens if you remove it?

Works fine, with this parameter.
APPEND initrd=/custom/acronis/TI11/ramdisk.dat /S quiet vga=791 load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 ramdisk_size=32000
Does not
APPEND vga=788 mbrcrcs=on load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 ramdisk_size=32000 initrd=/aechov/ramdisk.dat /S /quiet
Acronis begins to load, with hardware infos.
The Courser appears in the Console (Shell)

Thanks for the clarification. I most likely supplied you with a command I use for bcdw. In any case, you appear to have it working.
