  1. your way works, of course. but there's the problem with the knoppix bootscreen. when you boot other tools like e.g. Partition Magic it will flash the Knoppix bootscreen and then boot to Partition Magic. it's only a cosmetic problem, but with my mentioned way it works without this flashing knoppix bootscreen. i've tested it with KNOPPIX_V3.8.1-2005-04-08-DE.iso

    it's correct that the knoppix folder must not be marked as hidden.

  2. Solution is as simple as could be - Don't re-edit your setupldr.bin! :P

    I've been using the same setupldr.bin for WinXP, all the way from the gold (SP0) release, to SP1, to SP2 alphas/betas, and SP2 final - in other words, entire XP series used same setupldr.bin

    Similar was the case with Win2k - I used same file for SP0, SP3 and SP4 (I was not knowing to slip-stream in the days of SP1/SP2 of win2k).

    I haven't dl'ed the SP1RC for ws2k4 yet, so I can't say for sure about it.

    Use the same old setupldr.bin (which worked for you) - it really can't have changed.

    Strangely it works with the old setupldr.bin.

    The files of the different versions of Windows 2000 and of Windows XP had always the same filesize and i think the same content.

    The files of Windows 2003 with and without Service Pack 1 differs. Could someone check the different files and update the Windows 2003 section of the AIO DVD Guide? Perhaps the Bootsectors are also different?

    I have attached the new unedited setupldr.bin of Windows 2003 Enterprise with SP1 FINAL integrated. I have taken it from the german version, but i don't think it matters.

  3. Hi Folks!

    I tried "my" way again with the Knoppix Version v3.6 (KNOPPIX_V3.6-2004-08-16-DE.iso) and it works.

    Just follow these steps:

    -Copy the folder (cdrom:\boot\)[color="red"]ISOLINUX[/color] folder from cd to your harddisk

    -[color="red"]Rename[/color] the isolinux.cfg to [color="red"]syslinux.cfg[/color] and DELETE boot.cat & isolinux.bin

    -Download the attached file and unzip it, start winimage, load/open the file

    -Put all files from ISOLINUX folder on your harddisk into the image file

    There should be 12 files in your image: boot.msg, f2, f3, german.kbd, ldlinux.sys, linux24, linux26, logo.16, memtest, minirt24.gz, minirt26.gz, syslinux.cfg

    -If that's correct SAVE the image


    You have to put this image in your AIODVD folder. I have a folder called images and put there all my images (also the 4320.img) i need, and i start them via cdshell with the following line

    [code]if ($lastKey == key[k]); then bcdw /images/4320.img[/code]

    If there are any problems, read the above 2-3 times ;)

    When there are still problems, let me know and i'll try to help you.

    Ich denke, das ist einfach ausgedrückt. Ich habe grade keinen Bock das zu übersetzen ;)

    Dieses cdmenu.cmd habe ich noch nicht getestet.

  4. i dont get the flash of knoppix screen while using bcdw,isolinux in root but i have had it while isolinux in boot folder. A bin connected graphic file is getting loaded somewhere i look into it just short of time lately.

    you mean you have the isolinux.bin etc in root?

  5. Hi!

    i have attached the 4320.img with the ldlinux.sys inside. just rename your isolinux.cfg to syslinux.cfg and add the files of your isolinux dir (except boot.cat and isolinux.bin) with winimage.

    you have to delete the isolinux folder of course. now the knoppix bootscreen has no change to come up.

    it works great.

    @Markymoo

    no i dont using bcdw in root

    what do you mean? you don't use bcdw at all? or you haven't the isolinux folder in root?

  6. When i put the isolinux in any other folder than /boot or / i get the following error message :rolleyes:

    what do i have to put in there to boot knoppix?

    the isolinux folder is located in /LINUX/

    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    I found another guide to boot the latest knoppix.

    http://www.sadyc.net/anyCDintoUBCD.html

    The only problem is that the floppyimage is 2,88 mb and the files are about 4 mb.

    so take his image as seed image in EasyBoot and create a 4320 kbyte image. then copy the file ldlinux.sys from the 2,88mb diskimage in the 4,3mb diskimage, rename the isolinux.cfg to syslinux.cfg and put all files from the isolinux folder (except boot.cat and isolinux.bin) in the 4,3mb diskimage.

    if ($lastKey == key[k]); then bcdw /images/diskimage.img

    There's no Knoppix bootscreen anymore when using memdisk or diskemu for other apps :)

    I hope this is the final solution for this problem.

  7. yes, when i start the .ima files via memdisk i get the knoppix screen. when bcdw is used, there is no knoppix screen.

    e.g. ghost doesn't work with bcdw, cause the disks are write protected?!?!? "it can't write to disk" was the error message.

    UBCD uses memdisk also. When I start any program of the UBCD on my AIO DVD, then the knoppix screen appears.

    that is really bad *G*

    Putting it in a different folder works!

    Thx!

    in what folder exactly have you put it? and how do you start it?

    if $lastKey == key[4]; then bcdw /images/isolinux/isolinux.bin

    doesn't work for me :)

  8. Hi!

    Thank you.

    The link doesn't work (forum temp down?). Could you attach it here?

    Just for info, Ultimate Boot CD Ver 2.3 is released.

    ---------------------------------------------------

    The link works now.

    i got another easy way to implement the ubcd 2.31

    just hexedited the loader.bin to /ubcd/boot and edited the cdshell.ini with notepad.

    i changed all entries from images/ to ubcd/images/

    that's enough to boot the disk images.

    the dosapps folder has to be in root, i think.

    mcafee and fprot don't work :)

    that's one of my problems at the moment.

    i think the rest of the dosapps won't work also. i haven't tested yet, cause the lack of time.

    the other "problem" is, bcdw doesn't boot my ghost correctly. it can't write to disk?!? with memdisk it works, but then there's the knoppix crap again.

  9. i got it. it works perfect now.

    i had updated the files from cdshell to the newer version (2.0.15b beta) before. it doesn't works woth bcdw plugin anymore???

    now i have the good old cdshell 2.0.11

    and now everything works fine

    if $lastKey == key[3]; then bcdw /isolinux/isolinux.bin

    if $lastKey == key[4]; then bcdw /images/trueim7.WBT

    if $lastKey == key[5]; then bcdw /ubcd/boot/loader.bin <---after editing with /ubcd/boot AND moving all images from /ubcd/images/ to /images/

    Now the following options are running on my AIO-DVD

    Windows 2000 Prof SP4 (unattended AND standard setup)

    Windows XP Prof SP1 Corporate (unattended AND standard setup)

    Windows 2003 Advanced Server Corporate (unattended AND standard setup)

    Knoppix 3.4

    Ultimate Boot CD v2.21

    Norton Ghost 8 Corporate

    Partition Magic 8 German

    Acronis Partition Expert 8 German

    Acronis True Image 8 German

    office 2003/office xp with sp1-3 and exchange 2003 and some smaller apps are also on the dvd to fill it.

    Thanks to Markymoo, Webjunkie and of course to flyakite

    The only problem still left is the bootscreen of knoppix when starting ghost8 or partition magic 8 :)

    ------------------------------------------------------------------

    Norton Ghost 8 Corporate doesn't boot correctly on 'real computer startup' (in vmware it works!!) and freezes when starting (it doesn't matter if started via bcdw or memdisk (diskemu yet not tested).

    I have a ASUS A7N8X Deluxe with 2 Seagate PATA HDDs and a NEC 1300 A DVD Burner. No Serial ATA or something activated. I don't think my hardware is such special that Ghost could have problems.

    The next "problem" is the bootscreen of knoppix. everything started via memdisk (i think diskemu too) has this problem. but only if there is bcdw used anywhere in the cdshell.ini

    can someone acknowledge?

  10. Hi!

    I have a question concerning the bcdw plugin for cdshell.

    i added these lines to my cdshell.ini

    if $lastKey == key[3]; then bcdw /isolinux/isolinux.bin

    if $lastKey == key[4]; then bcdw /images/trueim7.WBT

    if $lastKey == key[5]; then bcdw /ubcd/boot/loader.bin

    key 3 is to start knoppix. it works

    keys 4 and 5 are to start True Image 7 German and UltimateBootCD 2.21 don't work.

    I always get an error message.

    "Error: File not found.

    [Command: bcdw] [Line: 92.2] [File: cdshell.ini]"

    3.) now you have to patch the loader.bin in the folder \ubcd\boot with a hexeditor

    then scroll down and add that entry: /ubcd/boot

    i changed the entry /boot to /ubcd/boot with a hex editor. is this correct?

    Isn't it possible with the bcdw plugin to start different images like the standalone application does?

  11. Hi!

    Thanks for this great guide to get Knoppix running.

    I had the problem that at some (not all) start options the knoppix bootscreen appeared and then started the correct app.

    That's the prob, that Tuxer had also.

    Option 2 (wn98) first gives me the knoppix bootscreen, and then boots 98.
    If the folder isolinux is pointed in the boot folder, the image appeared. If you put the isolinux folder in any other folder, the image doesn't appear.

    I only want you to know that.

    getting errors on booting knoppix now :rolleyes:

    ISOLINUX 2.04 (Debian,  2003-06-06) Copyright © 1994-2003 H. Peter Anvin

    Could not find kernel image: linux

    boot:

    Is there another possibility to supress the knoppix bootscreen at some starts of programs?

    --------------------------------------------------

    now it works :)

    i put the isolinux folder in root of the dvd.
