Adding partition magic

#1 Post by taltamir » Wed Nov 23, 2005 8:25 pm

I have partition magic, I would like to replace the two floppy boot instance with a CD version. Is it possible to integrate it into UBCD? and if so, how?

How about trying: diskemu partmagic.iso?

diskemu supports the booting of certain ISO images.

so, rip the two floppies. Make an iso CD image of them, and then use something called diskemu to emulate that as a floppy?

How do i use diskemu to do that?

I took the 2 floppies Partition Magic 8 makes and used WinImage to merge them as a 2.88 floppy image, then booted it using memdisk. There's likely more threads on the specifics of it here.

I'm not familiar with the newer Symantec owned versions of the program.
