Forum: UltraISO Topic: Memtest86 started by: condic Posted by condic on Jan. 22 2004,15:23
I have been trying to include a small memory test to my multi-boot CD.There is a website, < memtest.org >, which has some bin images, iso image, and source code. I create the floppy, boot it, and the program runs fine. I then created an img file from EasyBoot, added it to my CD and it does not work. This is not a standard DOS floppy. I then extracted the iso image, burned it, and it also works. But can not get UltaISO to extract the boot file, or any other information. When I try to extract the boot file info, I get no disc in CD-ROM. I really would like to add this memory test to my CD boot, so anyone who could explain how to do it (since clearly I am missing something) would be greatly appreciated. The iso is very small 1.2mb, and the floppy is even smaller 168kb. Thanks. Posted by martinx on Jan. 23 2004,08:57
Please see a previous topic here:< http://www.ezbsys.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=1;t=27 > Posted by condic on Jan. 23 2004,20:09
The other thread does not address this problem.When I try to extract the boot file image, I get the following error: "No disc in CD-ROM" eventhough it lists the volume in the pull down memu. If I open the iso, there are no files listed. This is version 1.0 of memtest86, or version 3 of memtest. What am I doing wrong? Does anyone have another URL to a copy of memtest.iso that has an image that works? Posted by martinx on Jan. 24 2004,04:47
I tested the ISO image from here:< Download - Memtest86 v3.0 ISO image (zip) > For memtest86+ 1.0, open the ISO image you downloaded and use 'Bootable->Save boot file' to get a boot image (it is 1.44MB large). Posted by condic on Jan. 24 2004,13:49
Thanks Martinx, your link to the ISO worked fine!I know that Ezbsystems is working on the Linux boot problems, so maybe I just need a little patience, but would it be helpful to send the iso, which has the boot, but which I can't mount the image to extract the boot file?

Please use 'Bootable->Save Boot File' to extract boot image from a bootable ISO image when opened. |
