You can use MEMDISK to boot ISO's (use MEMDISK of syslinux 3.84 or higher)

syslinux.cfg file:

Code: Select all

LABEL ubcd50rc1
MENU LABEL Ultimate Boot CD 5.0RC1
LINUX memdisk
INITRD /UBCD50RC1.iso
APPEND iso

Or you can use grub4dos.
menu.lst:

Code: Select all

title Ultimate Boot CD 5.0RC1
map /UBCD50RC1.iso (hd32) || map --mem /UBCD50RC1.iso (hd32)
root (hd32)
chainloader (hd32)

Note: not all iso's will work.

A list of working examples (iso's should work with MEMDISK too):

You will need to read the forums and documentation a little more. It sounds like you are not sure what you are doing and I am not sure thats something we can/want to teach/fix here.

To install to USB you need to run the ubcd2usb.cmd file located in the tools folder. It will take care of formatting the drive, transferring the needing files, and basically everything you need to get started. UBCD doesnt support booting off a NTFS usb partition yet (depends on when syslinux/grub add ntfs support).

As for loading your ISOs that is fairly easy. Its a matter of adding entries in the custom.cfg and transferring the iso to the custom folder. There is quite a few threads in the forum about this (i read at least 3 today). Search and take a look around.

I would like to add that Hirens Boot CD is ILLEGAL. Therefore we can not help you add that CD to your build.
