I still use bcdw for my multiboot-dvd. Isolinux/syslinux and grub4dos are integrated into bcdw.  Basically everything just works on my dvd (sardu, ubcd, hbcd, erd, any linux live incl. antivirus rescue iso, etc.). The limit is only the size of the dvd (~4.7 Gb).  Grub4dos is not really necessary to be integrated to my design, just incase.

I'm thinking to move to easyboot,  but not sure if all my stuff will work ?

By the way konboot on my multiboot-dvd work fine under grub4dos or syslinux.

Have a good day, you all

Yes that’s what I did using my grub4dos-“kicker-image" to launch konboot” :)

I think you misunderstood me with this ??? : "I thought it could be handy to use bcdw in some rare occasions - to make EasyBoot even more powerful"

Bcdw is built-in to EasyBoot – the post was firstly how to jump back to EasyBoot menu from grub4dos (which was solved) but then post changed to about launching bcdw from grub4dos – which is a major difference.
But as I pointed out – bcdw can already be used internally in EasyBoot – but it still can come in handy to launch bcdw directly from grub4dos – in some (very) rare occasions.

You are welcome :;):
Have a good day, yourself.

Hey all just had a question regarding jumping back and forth from grub to easyboot and vice versa. I post in this forum because I learned how to jump from grub to ezb in here. I am having problems getting ezb to go back to grub though. Any insight?

I apologize if this has been posted before. Ive searched quite a bit and couldnt find anything related other than using bcdw which Im not using.

Thanks

Answer: To launch grub (grldr) from EasyBoot menu, use command:  bcdw /grldr

OR

You can test using a “grub-kicker-image” with menu.lst below (tested and working fine):

find --set-root /wanted_grub_menu.lst
configfile /wanted_grub_menu.lst

Use “easyboot-kicker-image.script” to create “grub-kicker-image"
1. Insert menu.lst-lines in script from example above.
2. In script check “g-zip when creating Image”
3. Put in a nice short name for your “jump-Image”
4. Use memdisk “****img.gz” as menu command in EasyBoot menu

Note1: Name "wanted_grub_menu.lst" is just a substitute for what your use (I’m nor familiar with what name or where you have your grub menu) - and I  assume that "wanted_grub_menu.lst" is on the root of CD/DVD or USB device.

Note2: change path accordingly to where “wanted_grub_menu.lst” resides if not on the root.

Note3: Take attention to that grub is 100% case sensitiv when used in CD/DVD-unit and in Floppy images - but not case sensitiv when run from disk unit (including USB Stick\Thumb-drive)!

Please, how to access the root of the USB drive ?

I use "grub4dos" for load my Easy Boot ISO.

In my ISO i have multiple image file for load GHOST Script with autoexec.bat file for load Ghost Image stored in my USB Drive.

autoexec.bat:
CODE
@echo off
SET TZ=GHO-01:00
MOUSE.COM
keyb fr,,
MSCDEX.EXE /D:cd0 /L:X
GHOST.exe -CLONE,mode=load,src=X:\GHOST\WINXPHOME.GHO,dst=1 -RB


"X" Drive is not accessible ... if i use eltorito.sys in my "X" drive i have just contained my Easyboot Image ... not contained my USB Drive.

I can see that you are trying to access a file from CD\DVD-unit using substitute drive [X:]
But you now have ghost image “WINXPHOME.GHO” on USB and not on a substitute driver “X:” :O
Lines that I copied from your post is wrong – look below

@echo off
SET TZ=GHO-01:00
MOUSE.COM
keyb fr,,
MSCDEX.EXE /D:cd0 /L:X
GHOST.exe -CLONE,mode=load,src=X:\GHOST\WINXPHOME.GHO,dst=1 –RB

Test this instead:
@echo off
SET TZ=GHO-01:00
GHOST.exe -CLONE,mode=load,src=C:\GHOST\WINXPHOME.GHO,dst=2 –RB

Note1: USB is seen as C:\ by BIOS and the next harddisk unit is logically “2” as USB device is unit “1” [C:]

Note2: this is highly experimental – I do not have the full control how your hardware is built etcetera - make sure you don’t destroy data. Only have the target harddisk connected and not a third harddisk that might get wiped out if something’s goes bad for you ???

Note3: You most likely do not have any use for mouse support, which on the other hand, can be a hard nut to activate anyway on USB :O

Final note: I deleted you double post in another topic – hope you don’t mind :;):
You only need one request for help – I’m trying to help you as quickly as possible :cool:

Regards balder
