Hi i gotta say TYVM for this site and definately this topic
this is exactly the thing i am looking for in my current Course i am studying.
we use UBCD on CD among a bunch of other CD's etc, im wanting to transfer it all to USB and add my own stuff onto it aswell
ive managed to follow this tutorial and video and get it booting up in VMPlayer all the menu's i create etc work, the only thing i cannot get to work is my actual files
im linking to.
im using *.img, *.iso files and can get them to read fine, its when i try to gzip them into *.img.gz, *.gz and so on. It wouldn't be much of an issue if i only had a few
files on there but i plan to fill my USB with possible all the tools i need and have muliple menus etc for Tools, Operating systems etc so making my files smaller wherever i can
will save me space in the end.
the issue is i cannot read the *.gz, *.img.gz files as it keeps giving me an error
Booting UBCD
(hd,0,0)
Autodetect number-of-heads failed. Use default value 255
Autodetect sectors-per-track failed. Use default value 63
and thats where it ends i dont have the issues with the img and iso was just wondering am i needing to do something different when the file is compressed
here is my current menu.lst for the img i want to load:
title UBCD
map (hd0,0)/ubcd.img.gz (hd32)
map --hook
chainloader (hd32)
boot
ive been trying (fd0), but have not managed to get it working im new to these commands, as i do have a software development certificate this is foreign to me
please any help would be appreciated
