Ultimate Boot CD

Actually, Ben sold it. The company who bought it has no interest in maintaining it.

A few of us tried continuing things along the multiboot route but eventually lost interest or free time to continue.

Sorry for the bad news, but I doubt it'll make a comeback

I think you may be right, something seems weird in the way it is formatted. There are 0 hidden sectors when I believe there should be 63. I'll give the script a try and see what it says.

Any way to bypass the complaint grub4dos has? In a few hours I haven't found any on my own.

I believe this is broken for USB switching from grub4dos menu to syslinux

Cannot chainload ISOLINUX from a non-CDROM device.
Partition table not recognized(boot_drive=0x80, err=1)

Error 43: The BPB hidden_sectors should not be zero for a hard disk boot sector

pmagic 5.5 works

5.3 is the last version working using Victor's method of replacing files. 5.4 hangs at boot, might be something wrong in pmagic itself. No idea

Make sure "current path" is selected in Bat to Exe Converter, otherwise it uses %temp%

I really doubt it is, since the exe only does a cd and then start "batchfile.bat". I've used a few other programs with the same result.

IMZ is a compressed image file, while IMA/IMG are not. You can use winimage in the future just keep in mind IMG only.

Is there a free utility that I can use to do this? Floppy Image seems to default to the .IMZ forman

Change the default to IMA then manually rename the file to IMG, I use winimage also

First, try IMG file instead of the compressed IMZ. Then try changing this; LABEL AFP-IS Ghost Image MENU LABEL AFP Ghost Image KERNEL memdisk APPEND initrd=/custom/ghost.IMZ to this; LABEL AFP-IS Ghost Image MENU LABEL AFP Ghost Image KERNEL memdisk INITRD /custom/ghost.IMG leave off the append raw

Hello, I have an EXE created with Bat to EXE Converter 1.5 http://download.cnet.com/Bat-To-Exe-Converter/3000-2069_4-10555897.html which launches a few batch scripts and menus. All works fine, except anything having to do with UBCD scripts (uncd2iso also). See below. C:\UB\UBCD\files\ubcd\tools\win3...

Boot UBCD and launch Offline NT Password & Registry Editor, it can be found in HDD tools / Recovery

Out of curiosity, what was the problem that UBCD's HD tools found? The reason I ask is because if your HD has bad sectors then there could be a HW problem that will get worse over time and it may be worth replacing your HD altogether.

Is there a guide somewhere that will help users update pmagic on their own?

I apologize for always being the one to report these things..
