BCD store

[Owyn]

Hello,

I'm working on the BCD store, and I have a little problem.

Currently I have the pxelinux.cfg loaded when I boot on the network. I would like to move all elements I have in this menu into the BCD store.

Almost all things works, but I have not succeeded to launch an application.

I will explain by examples, it will for easy for me.

I have the following code into my default file (pxelinux.cfg)

label RESCUE MODE
  MENU RESCUE MODE
  KERNEL startrom.0

To launch the Rescue Mode (it's a bartPE), I use the following code into the BCD :

Real-mode Application (10400009)
--------------------------------
identifier			  {bdd71c0f-83ba-11dd-aab5-001e4fd221c8}
device				  boot
path					startrom.0
description			 Rescuemode
pxesoftreboot		   Yes

And it works perfect.

Now I would like to do the same thing with another application. The difference is that instead of loading one .ISO, I need to emulate a 1.44Mo disk.

label Diag1
  menu label DIAGNOSTIC
  kernel memdisk
  append initrd=diag1.img keeppxe

I was thinking about this code into the BCD, but it's don't work.

Real-mode Application (10400009)
--------------------------------
identifier			  {44f1346e-bf8d-11dd-aad7-001e4fd221c8}
device				  boot
path					memdisk initrd=diag1.img
description			 Diagnostic
pxesoftreboot		   Yes

In another words, anyone succeed to emulate a disk launched by the BCD menu ?

Of course all comments are welcome. I'm sure there are several possibility to launch my application, but all my tests were fails.

Best regards,

Owyn.

I would go a different route and change the pxelinux/syslinux default menu to add that as an option there rather than in the BCD.
