This program received great reviews but so far non of the techs here can figure it out.  Questions
1 id there any documentation other than the chm file which is less than helpful?

2 we are trying to run some dos image files in IMA nowhere does it show that thay can be run and Ultra iso will not create anything other than an Ima can this file be run???  does anyone have a list of file that can be run or perhaps a sample meu?

3 does this program allow you to have sub menus???  one that links to the other?  again a sample of someone elses work would be helpful.

4 If we have read correctly we can run bin files and do not have to extract them so boot info will be in tact.  this looks like a neat program but we are finding information very scares and it very unuser friendly can some one please help us out
thanks a bunch

1) I'm not aware of any docs other than what it comes with but this forum will  certainly help a lot!

2) The IMA is just a floppy image (although you can create reather large images beyond the size of a standard floppy).  Note that this image must be of a BOOTABLE floppy or floppy image.

3) Sub Menus and links to other menus? Absolutely! When you install EZBoot it will install a set of menus by default. Take a look at these - it's a great place to  get started by looking at the provided sample.

4) For a CD you will need to extract the boot sector. You can use UltraISO or other similiar programs to  accomplish this.

thanks but easyboot only installed one sample menu that is a single level menu

I guess I need to know what kind of bootable images can I run what kind of caommands can I exicute and how to make a multi level menu
