Dual Booting bartPE and ERD 2005

[zippido]

Hi Guys and Gals,

Im wanting to create a dual booting cd wthat has Bartpe and ERD Commander 2005 as options.

I know that i can get a plugging to but ERD command into BartPE, but for my requirements in need to the option of using both on boot up.

The thing is that both of the programs us the I386 folders. Therefore my question is what files to i need to edit so that i can change the I386 folders to something like ERD5 and BART, while still allowing me to boot the programs?

I have tried using PowerPacker thinking that this woud be able to autmate teh changes for me but it doesn't seem to work.

Any help would be great!

Read the one and only guide you'll ever need for the basics of multi-boot CDs. Some of the material is outdated (ERD 2003 vs ERD 2005), but the method still works, and all the files that are there are still valid.

http://flyakite.msfnhosting.com/

There are explicit instructions there for ERD and BartPE.

Only problem is these guides based on XP SP1 the Bartpe that i have uses XP Sp2 and I think ERD 2005 is the same.

Any idea what extra files i need to edit and what I do so to them?

Follow the guide, I'm running 4 PE's off my DVD, ERD Commander 2005, Syamntec's Recovery Disk, UBCD For Windows, and a PE from a collegue of mine...

Just follow the instructions on the flyakite site...

I called mine ERD1, SYM1, BPE1, and CPE1 respectively

Im now having Problems with BartPE nu2menu, when i copy over to the cd it over rides the xpe nu2menu! Any ideas how I can edit the setup files on bartpe and edit the nu2menu so that it is stored in a different folder (such as bartnum2menu folder instead of nu2menu folder)?

erd commander 2005 was a little tricky...

take a windows boot.bin..hex edit it..i386 to ERD1..rename it to ERD1.DAT

MAKE TWO (2) folders in root folder

ERD1...copy paste all contents of i386 folder...

COPY setupldr.bin and txtsetup.sif from i386\system32 and paste in ERD1

edit txtsetup.sif....SetupSourcePath = "\ERDC\"

edit setupldr.bin in hex editor...changing i386 to ERD1

ERDC...the whole .iso extracted with isobuster

copy WIN51IS to root folder

copy winbom.ini to root folder

enter this line in cdshell.ini

if $lastKey == key[3]; then chain /ERD1.DAT

keep the original files in their places..it doesn't hurt

good luck.........mine works fine

Use BCDW 2.01.

Rename I386 folder from Bart PE to WNPE. Point to this folder in bcdw.ini like \wnpe\setupldr.bin.

Erd can go on as it is. \i386\setupldr.bin in bcdw.ini

No hex editing required whatsoever.

Works like a charm.
