Webjunkie Posted May 19, 2004 Share Posted May 19, 2004 @all solution:Adding Ulitmate Boot CD v2.21 to your bcdw menuinstruction:1.) make a folder to the root of your bootdvd or bootcd on hdd: ubcd2.) then extract the hole iso of Ultimate Boot Cd to the folder: ubcd3.) now you have to patch the loader.bin in the folder \ubcd\boot with a hexeditor then scroll down and add that entry: /ubcd/boot4.) now you have to do only one thing - add an entry in bcdw.ini or cdshell.ini5.) add this parameter to bcdw.ini:\ubcd\boot\loader.bin ; Ultimate Boot CD v2.21 ; ^ Start Ultimate Boot CD 2.21Now make the iso with cdimage and test it with virtual pc or vmware.Look at my Multiboot DVD I have integrated follow stuffs:Boot Optionen:Bart's Windows PEKnoppix v3.4 CeBit EditionUltimate Boot CD v2.21Betriebssysteme Workstation:MS Windows 98 SEMS Windows 2000 Professional SP4MS Windows XP SP1Betriebssysteme Server:MS Windows 2000 Advance Server SP4MS Windows 2003 Server CorporateAcronis Programme:Partition ExpertTrue Image Server 6True Image Server 7Recovery ExpertDisk EditorDrive CleanserMigrate EasyOS SelectorPowerquest Programme:Deploy Center 5.5Drive Image 6Partition Magic 8Datapol Programme:CIA CommanderOffice XP SP3Cu Webjunkie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FBi_ Posted May 29, 2004 Share Posted May 29, 2004 Hi!I have a question concerning the bcdw plugin for cdshell.i added these lines to my cdshell.iniif $lastKey == key[3]; then bcdw /isolinux/isolinux.binif $lastKey == key[4]; then bcdw /images/trueim7.WBTif $lastKey == key[5]; then bcdw /ubcd/boot/loader.binkey 3 is to start knoppix. it workskeys 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 hexeditorthen scroll down and add that entry: /ubcd/booti 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?

Markymoo Posted May 29, 2004 Share Posted May 29, 2004 I did it different. I just extracted my images dir from ultimatebootcd to my AIO and then loaded the images individually. Saves some space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FBi_ Posted May 29, 2004 Share Posted May 29, 2004 Yeah, that would be a possibility.But every time a new version of ubcd is released, you have to check that all links are correct.Is there a easier way to integrate the ubcd to the AIO dvd using cdshell (and bcdw plugin)?

FBi_ Posted May 29, 2004 Share Posted May 29, 2004 (edited) 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 2.0.11and now everything works fineif $lastKey == key[3]; then bcdw /isolinux/isolinux.binif $lastKey == key[4]; then bcdw /images/trueim7.WBTif $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-DVDWindows 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 3.4Ultimate Boot CD v2.21Norton Ghost 8 CorporatePartition Magic 8 GermanAcronis Partition Expert 8 GermanAcronis True Image 8 Germanoffice 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 flyakiteThe 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.inican someone acknowledge?

Markymoo Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 A lesson learnt. Don't use betas unless absolutely necessary. I am using 2.0.11ultimatebootcd has the sense to use cdshell now.You can always take a look and use my cdshell script it runs 27 operating systems plus utils. http://www.911cd.net/forums/index.php?act=...st=0#entry372382k3 Enterprise,DataCenter,Std,Web2k Advanced Server,Datacenter,Server,WorkstationXP Tablet,MediaCenter,Std,Home,nLite,oem,customNT4 Enterprise,Server,WorkstationLinux KnoppixUltimatebootcdErd CommanderAcronis UtilsME, 98, 95Norton AvBartPEGhost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FBi_ Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 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 2.31just 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.
