As this seems to be you first post in this forum – I say welcome :)

Answer: You can’t :(
What I refer to is that EasyBoot itself is not equipped with tools to combine two Win-7 setup-folders. We can only at present time have one folder with same name on the root of EasyBoot (root of EasyBoot is folder disk1 if you wonder).

I know I have seen this combination somewhere but this is done with tools from Microsoft :O

However, you can launch setup of one chosen Win-7 source.

Copy everything from Win-7 ISO-file to EasyBoot\disk1  – and use the command in EasyBoot is:  run vistaldr.bin
Note: check that you have Vistaldr.bin in folder ezboot

Nothing wrong with your English – works fine :;):

Thanks you for your reply

I will try this for my multiboot dvd. If you have another solution for my problem, it will be fine.
I need this multiboot dvd for my job.

Thanks Balder..

hello dear friend balder.
What would be the right way to do the same but under grub4dos.

Would launching the whole ISO to ram work?

Thanks :)

Unfortunately it doesn’t help :(  
Note: The “cyber-world” is looking for a simple solution to this problem – and the best solution would certainly bee to launch Win7-ISO as it is – but this is not possible as files (from inside of ISO) is needed in “real time”.
However – I’m confident that a solution is coming in the near future – at least – he, he before I drop down dead :laugh:

And it doesn’t help launching ISO from RAM – reasons the same as above :O

Launch setup of Win-7 in grub menu.lst is something like this:

title Setup Win-7
find --set-root /bootmgr
chainloader /bootmgr

Regards balder

balder thank you for your response.

I am assuming that the contents of my Win7DVD have to be extracted to the root of the USB drive. Is this correct?

Thanks. :)

Well – you never mentioned setup from USB – this was about setup from DVD :O

To run setup from USB I strongly recommend this tool from HERE :cool:
It includes also setup from USB device for WinXP as Vista as Win-7 and also WindowsPE :;):

Ops :)

Thanks for the program. I am not sure if it will be able to help me because I want to be able to install Win7 from my USB that already contains other programs which are launched via grub4dos.

I think there is no easy way.

Lets just say that I am not burning with desire to achieve this but rather due to human curiosity. I think it is much easier to install Win7 form DVD rather than a USB stick. ;)

When I fist installed EasyBoot, there was Windows 7 setup menu item by default, with the command run bootmgr. So, I extracted all the files from Win7 ISO into disk1 folder and it worked. So, I guess the default setup of the program was changes (after 1+ year) to run/support W7 by default and could be used.
