Adding ISO images to UBCD 4.02

Hi!

I made a custom group to UBCD, (LAN / NIC setup and diagnosis).
My floppy images works as well, but the Broadcom's diagnostic apps are to big, they are released as bootable CD images, 8-12 MB...

Trying to load with memdisk, but my PC hangs up when booting the ISO.

Does anybody has resolved this problem?
/Maybe this is specific to my PC?/

Not sure if there is a way to boot ISO files using UBCD4, but if you can extract the diags, try booting them as a "dosapps" item. See the method I used for the Dell Diagnostics.

Thanks Scott,

I am thinking about this, I need to made a custom boot system, beacasue NIC diag apps requires specific environment (oftem without any EMM manager for example)

When your booting a Win98 boot disk you can select to do an interactive start up and select not to load that line for the Autoexec.bat and/or Config.sys.

I believe the boot disks included with the project also allow you to select this.
