Yzöwl Posted April 5, 2005 Author Share Posted April 5, 2005 Just an updated version for Bootable ISO version onlyThere were a couple of niggles etc, I had with the last one, so I changed it slightly. INSTRUCTIONS ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯INSTALLATION¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯1. Right-click on BootISO.inf and choose Install from the Menu2. You can delete the unzipped files, as they aren't required!HOW TO USE¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯1. Right-click on your unattended source folder, (E:\UXPCD Pro)2. Select MakeBootISO from the context menu which has appeared.WHAT HAPPENS¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯All hidden and read only attributes within your source are removed,Next a search is made for any thumbs.db files, if found they will beremoved too. Your ISO is then built using the usual switches and theoptimize switch is added. The resulting ISO will have the same nameas the source folder, it will also have the same label. The createdISO will be found in the parent folder of the installation source.RULES¯¯¯¯¯1. The source folder can contain spaces in the folder name.2. The source folder path does not need to be at root level.3. If not at root level, it's path must not contain spaces.UNINSTALL¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯1. Go to Add or Remove Programs in the Windows Control Panel2. Highlight the Bootable ISO Right Click Extension entry3. Click Change/Remove.NOTES¯¯¯¯¯This is an updated version of what has gone before, it is a simpleCDIMAGE extension for frequent /addicted unattenders, to save time.I am not going to start adding features to it, on request. - YzöwlHope it helps out some of you newer guys, if nothing elseBootISO.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yzöwl Posted May 16, 2005 Author Share Posted May 16, 2005 I am hoping DefaultUninstall is an typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadowboxer Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 FileDisk by Bo Branten can be used to handle iso/hdimages like normal drives.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Alternatively, Virtual ISO can handle a much borader range of files and works with 64bit windows exclusively.

swampy Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 between "Right Click to Create ISO" & CMenu, I've just about worn out my right mouse click, belated thanks to both authors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumpy Dooby Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 I put the following code right in the top of (just below the TITLE, actually)CD\IF %DIRE%=="%CD%" goto CDISOCD /D "%DIRE%"And then right before the EXIT command, I add this line::CDISOstart %WinDir%\System32\makeiso\LCISOCreator.exe && EXITOn the previous line, I have a goto :eof, which is defined just above exit (to prevent the script from always executing LCISOCreator).I use this to create ISO files from an optical drive. You can Google LCISOCreator if you wanna use this script. Currently, I'm going to work on a script that won't s*** on me if the label doesn't meet Joliet standards, but instead, will prompt the use to enter in a label themselves.

Yzöwl Posted February 28, 2006 Author Share Posted February 28, 2006 @ Dumpy Dooby - Is there a problem which concerns you...?If so please describe the problem, and with which file you have it. This will give me and possibly others a chance to comment or fix it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumpy Dooby Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 (edited) I wrote a fix . I suppose you can implement my fix accordingly if you want (duly note that I changed the directory structure and got rid of the cmd and img directories and consolidated it all into one "makeiso" directory within System32 ... it shouldn't take you too long to modify my script). See the attached file. Basically, my problem was when folder names were greater than 32 characters (16 characters for boot discs), then CDIMAGE would echo back an error, and thus, no ISO was created. I solved this problem by having a script count the amount of characters in the label name. If the amount exceeded 32 (or 16 for boot discs), then the script prompts the user to change the name. A loopback is then implemented to make sure the user's input will not cause any problems.And I also made the .CMD into one file, which uses the /B switch for creating a bootable ISO.makeiso.zip Edited February 28, 2006 by Dumpy Dooby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, as I think I may have stated many moons ago the files were not produced as do everything workhorses. There will be some people who have non usual configurations etc. requiring different tools etc. And believe me filenames containing 32 or more characters should be considered as non usual!And I also made the .CMD into one file, which uses the /B switch for creating a bootable ISO.Using a second parameter does however appeal far more and if I do create a 'fix', I will implement this idea and duly note your input.

I wasn't suggesting that you implement my fix. I was merely saying that I had a problem. I wrote my own solution. You can use my code in any way you choose. No biggie. I think >16 characters isn't unusual, which conflicts with the requirement for a bootable ISO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
