Help to get a DOS image to boot
Posted: Sun Apr 29, 2007 1:37 pm
Hello folks,
UBCD is great and I've been using it since early in rev. 3. I'd like to move to rev 4 but seem to be stuck on 3.4 for the following reason.
I have one dos program (Image for DOS from Terabyte) and it never would boot (even at 3.3 or 3.4) with memdisk - but it boots fine with dosemu. So in the old days that was fine.
Basically when I start that program (custom menu, of course) in 3.4 with memdisk, isolinus gets to "booting image....boot..." and hangs. In 4.0, when I boot the image, the boot program puts the screen black for a few seconds (like all boots) and then reboots the computer.
I've tried a number of different dos images (Win98, XP bootable disk, just created via the Terabyte MakeDisk, etc.) and I've created images from the floppy with both floppyimage 1.52 and with WinImage - nothing seems to make a difference.
Anyone got a good solution or suggestion for me?
Thanks
