Hi! At first thanks for your great work! I started to make multiboot CDs 1,5 years ago, with Bart Lagerweij 's utils. I have a problem with the memtest86 floppy image, made by the authors in the .zip file, downloadable from it's homepage, when I use diskemu. Some days ago I found on Bart's page a new method to select boot images on CD with syslinux/isolinux/memdisk. I thought this is my solution! With LiLo I could start the memtest86 image from hardisk, but with diskemu I couldn't. The error number was 8000, and now it's the same when I tr...

Hello all, Just try mix diskemu with isolinux.... not success >_< I config isolinux.cfg like this: label 5 kernel loader.bin append initrd=winme.img label 6 kernel loader.bin winme.img label 7 kernel loader.bin append initrd=fdlinux.img label 8 kernel loader.bin fdlinux.img label 9 kernel loader.bin append initrd=pklinux....

...ing this question as it is in part off topic, but I have searched extensively with little results. Are there any alternatives to memdisk for use with pxelinux for booting troublesome floppy images with such applications that fail to use INT 15h, AX=E820h. Having spent some time experimenting with diskemu's diskem1x.bin and cdshell's implementation of diskemu as a module for use with bootable cdroms, I have seen memdisk and diskemu work from a common loader as alternative kernels for booting floppy images (for use with bootable cd-rom). Is anybody aware of a diskemu kernel or alternative ke...

...ate a bootable CD, the I-Loader.bin starts the Isolinux.bin, because I don?t like use mkisofs. Isolinux can start an Disketten Image, but not an Eltorito Image like Windos 2000 Cd?s. The error Message is "Invalid or corrupt Kernel Image" WAY? I know, that the file is not corrupt. Bart?s Diskemu can start it correctly. The Text are in the isolinux.cfg is: ------------------------------------------- default 0 display msg prompt 1 label a kernel win2000.bin label b kernel memdisk append initrd=DosDisk.bin ----------------------------------...

Hello, Can anyone help me? Does any of you manage to load (boot) Bootitng through CDShell? How can I ensure that diskemu emulates a 1.44MB floppy? Any ideas?

...- CDs with "Smart Boot" then it works. But I think that using a floppy to load a bootcd which is (in my case) there to replace my boot floppy collection isn't really nice. Is there a workaround? (I tried also the i-loader from bootscriptor and loading the isolinux.bin with bart's diskemu, none of them worked) MFG Peschm? -- GMX - Die Kommunikationsplattform im Internet. http://www.gmx.net

Hello, i was getting into problems when booting a GRUB bootdisk with memdisk. I get the menu of GRUB, but when i change something to boot (e.g. Redhat installation tool) System freezes after uncompressing kernel. I used either syslinux version of Boot Scriptor and latest standalone version from kernel.org. I hope you are able to give me a clue what is wrong. Thanks in advance. Christian

I'm wondering if it's possible to use isolinux on a bootable CDR to boot an ISO9660 disk image off of the CDR's filesystem. I'm trying to make a multi-boot CD which is capable of booting both floppy images and smaller ISO9660 images (such as the debian netinst or DSL - damnsmall linux), and I am wondering if isolinux is capable of doing this (or something similar to this -

Hi Peter, You did a great job on the isolinux and memdisk tools.. I can know, I've also written a CD-Rom disk emulator, only it's slow (read from the CD) uses 22KB conventional memory (mainly cache) and the emulated floppy image cannot be written to. http://www.nu2.nu/diskemu/ You're memdisk is fast, small conventional memory footprint and the emulated drive is writeable, very, very, cool!!! I (together with someone else) have written a real-mode Dos CD-Rom driver "eltorito.sys" (only 4KB) that supports a bootable CD-Rom drive in "no emulation&quot...

...apabilities Isolinux has to offer. It also expands on the feature set of Isolinux to allow more complex boot scenarios, and supports a simple scripting language which enables the CD designer to implement custom boot methods. It is based heavily on concepts pioneered by Bart Lagerweij in his program Diskemu. Boot Scriptor is free for non-commercial use." If you'd like to try this program or learn more about it, I invite you to visit the website, http://www.bootscriptor.org. The project is tracked on Freshmeat.net, so if you'd like to be notified of new releases as they're made yo...

...-hide trans.tbl -hide-joliet trans.tbl when I select 5 (kernel isolinux.bin winme.img) I got: COMBOOT image too large when I select 6 (kernel winme.img) I got: Cannot load disk image How can I "tells isolinux to use your BIOS's built-in emulator to boot the disk" ? Or how can I use Diskemu with Multiple boot images (isolinux/memdisk) ? Thanks. Regds LAM Chi-fung

Hi Mr Anvin, after downloading the Freedos bootable cd, which now uses your projects (ISOLINUX & MEMDISK) instead of Bart Lagerweij's DISKEMU (www.nu2.nu), I contacted the creator of the freedos cdrom. I was interested in how he did make that cd bootable. Now I understand it a bit. As I'm a MS Windows user, I had to figure some things out. However, upon booting I get a beautiful message: "isolinux 1.72 2002-04-23: isolinux: i...
