Ubcd on Usb
Posted: Thu Aug 07, 2008 5:47 pm
Greetings,
I have succesfully put ubcd on my usb stick, however, when using any tool that uses memdisk the dir "Dosapps" is not present, strangely, it is present when I boot from the cd. I have made sure that, to the best of my knowledge, every file is present and the same as the ones residing on the cd. As a result of the missing dir, none of the appended commands are working, such as cmospwd. However all of this works when booring from the cd. Why? Where has that dir gone? I have the folder "DosApps" on the usb stick...I don't understand why it isn't showing up in memdisk when booting from the usb stick.
Update:
I solved the issue and corrected the problem. For some reason ubcd2usb did not work for me, for some reason or another. My best guess is that it failed to copy a file or something. Anyways, I copied the whole cd to my usb drive, and instead of using menu.c32,( this wouldn't work for me either, I think this may be because I was already using vesamenu.c32 to load the options for the other tools on my usb) I used vesamenu.c32. Accordingly, I had to change all references to menu.c32 to vesamenu.c32. I made some other small changes as per my personal preferences bu, other than those, this is how I got it to work on my usb.
Thanks,
Stephen
