You always do your changes to the files in folder 'disk1' and then create ISO, followed by testing in some 'virtual environment' (Virtual PC or whatever) :O
When done, it's time to 'burn' to CD\DVD - or some CD-RW

Quote: "I'm trying to add a ISO file called ERD Commander"

Attention! ERD can be launched directly using ISO-file of ERD (which is the recommended method)
However, to make it possible to launch ISO-file of ERD directly, you need to use my script 'easyboot-iso.script' and in script tick 'Run ISO from RAM'
This solution works from both CD\DVD as from USB drive :;):
---------------------------------
Note: you have a help-button in each script that gives some basic help
You have download of script-collection below in every post I write in this forum
Attention! Read carefully 'READ_ME.html' inside folder 'balder' before you go ahead :O
And remember to extract folder 'balder' to the root in your OP-system (C:) :cool:

-------------------------
Quote: "Are these files applicable only to Kaspersky"
Yes only to kaspersky - ERD has nothing in common with kaspersky, which is a antivirus program
ERD Commander is a 'Live-system' based on a NT5-system (WinXP or similar NT5-system)

I'm going to have a deep look into all this.
No doubt I will have to come back to you.
Thanks again.

Hi Balder,
I had a look at the stuff on your links.My conclusion now is that I'm further away than I thought I was in this process.

I am inclined to use UltraIso to add a program to Hiren's. Everything I tried so far with this software failed along the process.
Is it possible to add a program with UltraIso and ,if so, can you help me on the steps to follow.
Thanks.

Well this has nothing to do with EasyBoot - but - as you cannot that easily include a program into Hiren I suggest you use Easyboot :)

You can most likely include a program into the grub menu that is used inside Hiren - which is close the same as use a 'grub-kicker-image' launched from EasyBooy menu :p

Quote: "Is it possible to add a program with UltraIso and"
Yes in some cases (if using the inside Hiren used grub menu it might work okay)

So my question is: what program are you interested to integrate into Hiren (or Easyboot) ERD or something else ???

Note: it is extremely easy to include Hiren into EasyBoot menu as a start :cool:

Balder,
The program I would like to integrate to Hiren's is Stellar Phoenix Data Recovery.I would appreciate a step by step guide to achieve that with Easy Boot.
I will give it a try.
On the other hand,Madar wrote a tutor in this thread on August 1st,2009 that I almost understood.
I think that should he had mentioned where to put and how to manipulate Partition Magic Pro 8.05 with UltraISO, I would succeed.I guessed different ways of doing it, but it failed.
Thanks.

Quote: "Partition Magic Pro 8.05"

Well I'm not familiar with Stellar Phoenix Data Recovery ???

Does it include a 'rescue image file' (ISO-file or floppy image) that we can launch when computer boot?
If not, it cannot be run from menu of EasyBoot :O
Could you please confirm if this program is provided with facility to create a 'rescue media' - most likely a ISO-file or perhaps a bootable floppy image - that can be launched when computer reboots.
----------------
However you then you jump to the old fashion "Partition Magic Pro 8.05" that has nothing in common with Stellar Phoenix Data Recovery

This old program "Partition Magic Pro 8.05" (sometimes called 'partition tragic' :( ) can be run from a floppy image (or bootable ISO-file).
Note: you create (or find on Internet) a DOS floppy image of partition magic_8_05 that easily can be launched from EasyBoot menu when computer reboots
But I know that partition magic has a built-in facility to create a bootable floppy image (bootable 'rescue image')
Copy floppy image to folder EZBOOT and use menu command:  run pm.img  (or whatever name you use to floppy image)
Tick only 'Joliet' when creating ISO in EasyBoot :cool:

Hi Balder,
I jumped to Partition Magic Pro 8.05 as an example only.
I just wanted to know how to add such a software to Hiren.
I understand Madar's tutor except for the insertion of the software itself, no matter which one.
If you could explain me how to do it with Partition Magic, I will be able to do it with a software of mine.
In short what I need is a complement of information on Madar's tutor:
1:How do I integrate Partition Magic?
2-Should it always be a ISO file?
3-Was Madar referring to Easy Boot or UltraIso when he explained this procedure?
Thanks

This can surely not be any problem to understand - or is it ???
----------------------
Quote: "Was Madar referring to Easy Boot or UltraIso when he explained this procedure?"

I would say Yes!
---------------------------------
However you only want Hiren
Okay, I'm on a friendly mood as Christmas is soon arriving :laugh:  

The most simple way is to use the 'floppy image' created by parted magic, followed by modifying the grub menu
It is possible to make changes to the DOS part of Hiren, but as it seems that you having problem following tutorial by @madar, I suggest you forget the DOS modifications and hold tight to the grub menu :O
You must be skilled in DOS and how that old fashion stuff works if you are going to make modifications in there
So let's stay put to grub menu!

Next question is:
What Hiren are we dealing with here ???

Okay, let us assume it is Hiren_v15.2 (latest release)

Hiren_v15.2 use grub menu and has skipped *.uha to compress files - instead 7z is used to compress files

As it is close to pointless to compress the floppy image created by partition magic, you can use floppy image as it is.

Do it this way:

1. Create floppy image of parted magic and give it name partmagic.img

2. Open Hiren ISO-file with UltraIso (keep ISO opened in UltraIso to the end of this tutorial)

3. Inject partmagic.img to folder HBCD/Dos

4. Extract (drag and drop) text file menu.lst from inside of folder HBCD to the root (C:)

5. Open menu.lst on the root (use notepad)

6. Change this text:

title Mini Windows Xp\nRun Antivirus and other windows programs
# example password: test
# password --md5 $1$gNe0$KZPOE8wNbTNSKOzrajuoB0
find --set-root /HBCD/XP/XP.BIN
#map --mem /HBCD/XP/f6drivers.img (fd0)&&map --hook
chainloader /HBCD/XP/XP.BIN

title Dos Programs\nRun Dos Programs
set dos=/HBCD/Dos/dos.gz
find --set-root /HBCD/Boot/dos.img && set dos=/HBCD/Boot/dos.img
# to make big floppy image of all the dos programs (Useful when booted from NTFS usb drive) open HBCD\DOS\dosimg.cmd
find --set-root %dos%
map --mem %dos% (fd0)
map --hook
chainloader (fd0)+1
rootnoverify (fd0)
map --floppies=1

title Linux based rescue environment (Parted Magic 2012-10-10)\nTo manage partitions, backup and recovery
set pm=/HBCD/Boot/pmagic.lst
find --set-root %pm%
set lang=us
set opt=
configfile %pm%

TO THIS (you can copy and paste from below overwriting existing text in 'menu.lst' but it is only the bold part that is added):

title Mini Windows Xp\nRun Antivirus and other windows programs
# example password: test
# password --md5 $1$gNe0$KZPOE8wNbTNSKOzrajuoB0
find --set-root /HBCD/XP/XP.BIN
#map --mem /HBCD/XP/f6drivers.img (fd0)&&map --hook
chainloader /HBCD/XP/XP.BIN

title Dos Programs\nRun Dos Programs
set dos=/HBCD/Dos/dos.gz
find --set-root /HBCD/Boot/dos.img && set dos=/HBCD/Boot/dos.img
# to make big floppy image of all the dos programs (Useful when booted from NTFS usb drive) open HBCD\DOS\dosimg.cmd
find --set-root %dos%
map --mem %dos% (fd0)
map --hook
chainloader (fd0)+1
rootnoverify (fd0)
map --floppies=1

title Linux based rescue environment (Parted Magic 2012-10-10)\nTo manage partitions, backup and recovery
set pm=/HBCD/Boot/pmagic.lst
find --set-root %pm%
set lang=us
set opt=
configfile %pm%

title Parted Magic-8.05
map --mem /HBCD/Dos/partmagic.img (fd0)
map --hook
chainloader (fd0)+1
rootnoverify (fd0)


7. Save changes to menu.lst

8. Inject (drag and drop) menu.lst back into folder HBCD in ISO-file overwriting existing 'menu.lst'

9. Save changes to Hiren ISO-file when closing UltraIso

That's it

Attention! Be aware that launching ISO-files are not done with same syntax :O
And further more, some software needs 'special treatment' to run properly
You can compare to EasyBoot and how we treat software in there to make it work correctly!

Suppose my software is Stellar Phoenix Data Recovery.The file of this software is in .exe format only.Is it possible to convert it into whatever format to make it work in Hiren's?

Thanks and please stay in the Christmas mood until I'm finished with this!!!

Well that part won't help us in this case :O  as you quote:
"The file of this software is in .exe format only.Is it possible to convert it into whatever format to make it work in Hiren's?"

No absolutely not :O
I don't think you understand how hiren (or EasyBoot) works and/or are used ???

Hiren and EasyBoot is not a Windows system - it is used as boot-manager when computer boots to launch different 'tools'

I think you need to do some research to better understand how these things are used (and works) before I can be to any help :(
