I don't have the ability to try another machine at the moment.

Is there any way I can see the ISO you created to ensure everything I'm doing is correct?

You can test checking ”Run ISO from RAM” in easyboot-iso.script - however I don’t think this helps :(  – but worth a try anyway :O
Note: use “Run ISO from RAM” only to the reduced ISO-file (ISO without folder knoppix).

Alright. I'm not sure how to select that option, as I do not immediately see it in WinBuilder.

I did get a chance to run my ISO on another PC. Two in fact. One Vista and another Windows 7 machine.

Both came up with the same error. So... there must be something wrong with how I'm creating the image...

You have that option in easyboot-iso.script (separate checkbox “Run ISO from RAM”) :)
But as I earlier pointed out – I don’t think it helps much :O
Option “Run ISO from RAM” is basically only needed when launching WinPE based on NT5-systems - typically BartPE or any Windows-live-system based on NT5-system (NT5-system= folder i386)
NT6-system is typically Vista\Win7 in case you wonder.
Note: you do not need to “Run ISO from RAM” with Windows-Live-PE-system based on NT6 (MsDART or similar).

Attention! It’s possible something went wrong when you downloaded “balder.zip” – please to make sure – do a fresh download and replace folder “WinBuilder_complete” – so we are sure there isn’t some problem with WinBuilder itself :cool:

I’m unable to recall this “PXE stack” problem in my 4 different computers – I have never seen this and therefore unable to lead you in right direction

Test this anyway:

1. Follow guidelines in post nr: 3 as usual
2. In folder ezboot, open file KNOPPIX.img.gz (you can use any ZIP-program) and extract floppy image knoppix.img to folder ezboot
3. Create menu in EasyBoot and use menu command: run knoppix.img
4. When creating ISO in EasyBoot – check “Joliet” and also check “Allow Lower Case”

You can test created ISO using Windows “Virtual PC”
Note: if this works – then it something wrong with your setup of EasyBoot.

----------------------------------------------------------------
To sort out what causing you problem you can use easyboot-grub-iso.script to create a separate ISO-file.

1. Follow guidelines in post nr: 3
2. Activate easyboot-grub-iso.script when finished with above in post nr: 3
3. Move (not copy) folder ISO and folder KNOPPIX from folder “disk1” to folder “WinBuilder_complete\ISO” (we don’t need this folders in Easyboot\disk1 as we are going to create a new “root” in folder “ISO” in folder “WinBuilder_complete”.
4. Now create a new ISO in EasyBoot (this ISO created by EasyBoot is much less in size as we only have folder ezboot left).
5. In Easyboot-grub-iso.script, set a name you like to ISO-file that’s we are going to create (any name you like)
6. In field for “ISO-option” only check “Joliet” and nothing else
7. In “EasyBoot-section” - check “Integrate Easyboot-ISO-file” and make sure that path and name to created ISO-file in Easyboot is correct (scroll and point to ISO-file in Easyboot if needed).
8. Push Start-button “Create ISO-file”.
9. Script has built-in test facility (qemu) – you can use this test, and choose how much RAM you want to allocate to qemu (256 MB RAM should be enough for this test)
10. Choose to start easyboot in grub menu that pops up - and launch knoppix in easyboot menu as usual

Note: Script-collection updated - please do a new download :O
