4, Additional notes
 1) About creating new floppy/disk images
    - Floppy image size 160KB-2GB, EasyBoot/bcdw compatible
    - Harddisk image size 1MB-16GB, memdisk compatible
    - You may choose preset image size (for example 1.44MB, 2.88MB, etc.) or enter custom size (for example 1.88MB, 250MB, 2GB, etc.)
    - Can set bootsector for Win9x, WinNT/2000/XP, Vista, MS-DOS 6.22/PCDOS 7.1/FreeDOS or Syslinux

 2) About changing size of an IMA (For example 1.44MB->2.88MB converting)
    - Open an .IMA file
    - Press F9
    - Set new size from preset image size (for example 1.44MB, 2.88MB, etc.) or enter custom size (for example 1.88MB, 250MB, 2GB, etc.)
    - Browse for output image filename
    - A new .IMA file will be created with same bootsector and file order

 3) About creating bootable USB flash drive
    - Can create large bootable USB (16GB for example)
    - USB-HDD is the prefered mode in general, for Award BIOS's please choose USB-FDD, USB-ZIP may ne helpful for Dell computer's

    Tips for popular issues:
    - BartPE
      Open the ISO image created by BartPE (C:\pebuilder3110a\pebuilder.iso for example), choose 'Bootable'->'Write Disk Image' to create a bootable USB stick
    - Linux live CD such as Knnopix/Ubuntu/PCLinuxOS/UBCD/EBCD
      Download ISO file (KNOPPIX_V5.1.1CD-2007-01-04-EN.iso or pclinuxos-2007.iso for example), open it by UltraISO and choose 'Bootable'->'Write Disk Image'    
    - MS-DOS for Win9x
      Open a floppy or disk image (.IMA/.IMG/.FLP) and write it to a USB stick
    - Bootable CD's with a floppy/hdd emuation boot image (such as Hiren's Boot CD) can be writen properly as well

Hi xoben,

Thanks for the update!

I'm wondering if harddisk bootsectors may be written to an image via the commandline?

Thanks,
Galapo.

Sorry, this feature is not available.

PS: You may change bootsector of a floppy/disk image by 'Bootable'->'Load Boot Image File' when it is opened.
