dazkrlauwste Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 I have recently acquired an iso file of an official Windows Server 2003 3in1 (STD, ENT, WEB). When I look at how the file is made I see that M$ doesn't use an third-party bootloader (e.g. cdshell) but a modified Microsoft Corporation.img with it's own menu, I'll post it here along with an screenshot of the structure of the 3in1 CD so others can check it out. I'd like to know how they do that so I won't have to use cdshell nomore.3in1.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedVyper Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 Hmm this brings me toa curious question. Since obviously by this CDSHELL is not needed if you know how to code your own boot sector. Anyone have any websites or and tutorials on how to created your own boot sector? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jito463 Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 Well, the boot sector can load other bootsectors, but if you want to launch floppy images, that's something different However, I did get around to editing the above boot loader, and manged to add a 4th option to the list (after finally realizing if it's larger than 2048 bytes it won't load), which means it should be possible to implement multiple boot options. The only limit is the maximum file size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
