Hi xoben, I had a strange problem, these are my folders:

boot (my old boot-cd, ~ 11 MB)
ezboot
werkstatt (only a folder on dvd, size ~720 MB)
WIN98
WN2K
XPHE
XPPC
XPPR

In this version it´s running fine, but when the folder werkstatt gets bigger, up to ~ 1,3 GB,
the XPPR doesn´t work anymore:
Press any key..., but I can´t find that dammned ANY-key

Now I moved the i386 from XPPR to root, use the w2ksect.bin, and it´s running again,
but now I have the same problem
with the XPPC like before with XPPR
(it was working at the beginning)

As last try I renamed only the werkstatt-folder to zubehoer(accessories)
move the i386 back to XPPR, and now all is working again.

Whats the problem?

Another question: have you seen my post about the problem with the repair-console?
( I´m meaning the recovery-console at the beginning of installation)
Any idea?
Or is this only a problem with a non-english xp,
like some missing files in my geman WN2K?

And is it possible to get a log-file from the optimizing,
only a statistic?
That would be interesting.
This function is saving me over 1 GB!

One wish in next version:
When I start easyboot, go to menu and wouldn´t it be fine,
when I see there in my layout only the standard or marked item in highlight colors and the others in normal colors, like it is, when I boot from dvd?

Bye

Hi xoben, very interesting, but the complete size was maybe 3,2 GB when I have this problem.
All folders without zubehoer are ~2,1 GB
OK, I take the name `zubehoer` and it works.
But what about the problem with the recovery-console?
Maybe I need a fixmbr or fixboot.

Sorry, no idea about this problem.

Hi xoben, there must be missing files and somewhere not the right path.
I moved the i386 from XPPR to root, recovery works, but only with XPPR, not XPHE or XPPC
But even when I copy all files/folders from XPPR\i386\ up to XPPR,
its not working.

Hi xoben, the problem was this file: SPCMDCON.SYS.
I have to edit it in my first version, if not: Eula.txt missing!

My folders now:
boot
ezboot
i386 (XPPR)
WIN98
WN2K
XPHE
XPPC
Zubehoer

I take the original spcmdcon.sys( in wn2k, xphe and xppc) and now all is working fine.
The correct eula is shown and recovery-console is working.

I see it while testing the repair- console in win2k:
fine bsod: missing or damaged spcmdcon.sys

One question about the priority: I´m missing the optimize option.
When I open my optimzed iso, change the priority of some folders,
save it, it will be not optimized.

And wouldn´t it be better, when I see then somewhere the priority?

Maybe the priority-changing should be integrated in easyboot.

I don´t like to do something twice.

Please re-download EasyBoot from < http://www.ezbsystems.com/dl.php?file=ezb5_en.exe > , setup it and try again.

Hi xoben, I update my easyboot, change the name from zubehoer to tools,
make a new optimzed image ( 3,2 GB ), seems to be working.
But with a normal iso ( 4,4 GB ) same as before.
I think the easiest way for me is to rename the folder,
and thats it.
Because what happens, if my optimized iso is also over 4 GB?
