Hello everyone, I need your help ...

Here is my little project

"I try to integrate in GData easyboot"

1 ° I use "Create a boot CD G DATA" with the application GData

2 ° In the cd there established the "directories" following

d:---||
-- boot\grub --> contains files
boot.cad
gdata-boot.xpm.gz
linux26
menu.lst
message
minirt26.gz
stage2


-- dbase (The base anti-v)
-- GDATA (application)

(ultraedit) when your menu.lst

there inside.

#
# Sample boot menu configuration file
#

#gfxmenu /boot/grub/message

message (cd)/boot/grub/message

# Boot automatically after 30 secs.
timeout 30

# By default, boot Windows
default 0

splashimage (cd)/boot/grub/gdata-boot.xpm.gz

foreground = ffffff
background = c11a11

######## MENU ########

# For booting Microsoft Windows

title Microsoft Windows
root (hd0)
chainloader +1


# For booting G DATA BootCD

title CD d'amor‡age G DATA
kernel (cd)/boot/grub/linux26 quiet ramdisk_size=100000 init=/linuxrc apm=power-off vga=791 nomce lang=fr_FR.UTF-8
initrd (cd)/boot/grub/minirt26.gz

title CD d'amor‡age G DATA - alternative
kernel (cd)/boot/grub/linux26 quiet ramdisk_size=100000 init=/linuxrc apm=power-off vga=791 video=vesa nomce lang=fr_FR.UTF-8
initrd (cd)/boot/grub/minirt26.gz

I read somewhere on the net that had the "bcdw" then enter the values that I am unable to do.

Thank you for your help

Excuse my English. (french)

What you posted appear as grub/grub4dos commands.

I cannot see any "easyboot" commands (nor a reason to use easyboot at all ).

If you are using easyboot, you will need some sort of (floppy) image booting grub4dos.

As always, use grub/grub4dos in Command Line mode, entering each command on a line and pressing enter, this way you will be able to see what is the reply (and possibly find the error).

Just for the record, this:

means "boot the MBR of first hard disk" that can (or cannot) lead to booting Windows.

Each Linux distro may have/need different settings, an alternate guide with bcdw and isolinux:

Thank you very much for your answer, I will study the url

I just enter in easyboot

bcdw /boot/grub/isolinux /boot/grub/linux26 initrd=/boot/grub/gdata-boot.xpm.gz

but I have no display menu gdata

can be

splashimage (cd)/boot/grub/gdata-boot.xpm.gz ???

thank you

Notgdata-boot.xpm.gz ist the splash-image, but never (IN NON CASE) the initial ramdisk!

May be will work.

But also may be, all additional parameters are needed. (The following ist ONE line.)

But I'm not very familiar with Easy-Boot and BCDW anymore, many years ago, I've used these two ...

Greetings, FM_81

thank you, I'll try and keep you informed


in easyboot I can not exceed

commande : bcdw /boot/grub/isolinux /boot/grub/linux26 initrd=/boot/grub/minirt26.gz quiet ramdisk_size=100000 init=/linuxrc apm=power-off ----> maximum



stoped arreter on -------> #gdata

It seems like kernel and INITRD are loaded correctly, but the SqashFS-containerfile is missing!
Typically this one is the biggest file on the original-CD (Sorry, I didn't know it's exact name or other details!); it should have THE SAME PATH AND FILENAME on the new CD, which you are creating ...

Also it is possible, that there exists a key-file for path-defining on the original-CD?

MfG, FM_81

there is a large file called GData, but how to load?

Thank you very much for your help

Simply add it! (/GDATA/GDATA)
Same name, same path, keep also upper- or lowercase.
INIT-script will find it. (I hope!)
May be, must also add the complete folder dbase ...

Greetings, FM_81

commande : bcdw /boot/grub/isolinux /boot/grub/linux26 initrd=/boot/grub/minirt26.gz quiet ramdisk_size=100000 init=/linuxrc apm=power-off ----> Maximum characters

when I write / GData / GData in easyboot it automatically gives lowercase.

Maximum text in command


is it possible to remove a few lines ?

thank you

Sorry, I give up here; it looks like we are speaking different languages!
There is no reason to type "/GDATA/GDATA" in Easyboot, you should add these files to your build!

And if EASYBOOT has a limited command-line-length, you can try to ignore some boot-parameters like "nomce" or "apm=power-off" or "vga=791" or "quiet" or "lang=fr_FR.UTF-8" - but please let the others untouched.

Or use a better bootloader - like GRUB4DOS or ISOLINUX ...

Greetings, FM_81

I tried in several directory but fails ...
(excuse my English I am french)

I will try and isolinux and GRUB4DOS

thank you (merci beaucoup)
