Problem when moving the boot folder


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi everybody,

I've got the following problem: I'm able to assemble my multiboot-dvd, but when I try to make a new one using exactly the same bootfolder I used to build it, i get an error during install - the **** thing asks me to insert the 2nd boot disk in drive a: although I didn't even create the folders via bootdisks...

the same happens as soon as i copy the bootfolder from one location to another.

Has anybody ever had the same problem and /or can think of a way to bypass this annoying bug?

Thx in advance!

I think you should provide a few more details... folder structure, what you are trying to boot, what software you are using for multi-boot, etc.

There is too many things I can think of right now so it would help us to narrow what you are looking for

1. Which version of windows is this?

2. Do you have the CD idents accordingly?

3. Maybe a series of files, called "disk101","disk102","disk103" and so on is missing, which is why the above error message is shown.

Okay,

|Root

|--PRO1

|--SETUP

|--XP

|--PRO

|PRO1.dat

|other necessary files

I use Win2k SP4, BartPE and XP Pro SP2 for it.

When i try to make a new cd/dvd using all the files from the already working dvd, it asks me to insert 2nd installation disk in drive a: during the installation procedure; same happens when I try to make a different dvd using the files from ROOT but moving them over to an other partition.

I use CDShell.

Can I provide any further information that might be useful?

PS: The disk00* files exist in the boot folder, but why should they change or dissapear when moving the folder?

Thanks again for trying to help me, perhaps its just something ridiculous but I can't find it....

Sorry,

Just realised that this doesn't really show the layout of the dvd, so again

\Root\PRO1.DAT

\Root\PRO1\

\Root\Install\XP\PRO

\Root\other necessary files
