Hello boot masters!
Can anyone tell me [B]how to return to the Easy Boot menu after exiting some DOS based application?[/B]
I have created menu with the Partition Magic, Ghost and NTFS4DOS and it works. However, when I finish working, say in Partition Magic I exit to DOS and cannot go back to the menu except to reboot.  Â
Is there a way to go straight back to the menu and then choose, say Ghost and again after exiting Ghost to return to the menu?
Of course, I can navigate through DOS but I want to be able to return to the menu and go from there again to some other app.
Heeeeellllp!

Thanks for the tip. I followed the advice at the link you suggested to the letter, but when I exit Ghost or Partition Magic and type ezboot.com all I get  is: "EZBOOT v5.09(5.1.0) Copyright © 2002-2006 EZB Systems, Inc." !!! No returning to the menu, or anything else...the only thing I can do is to reboot the computer. Â
Beside the fact that this isn't working, my idea was , if possible, to somehow implement some command so when you exit the application you go to the menu automatically, without typing the command. Don't get me wrong, it is not a big deal to type "ezboot.com" and press "ENTER" (if I can get it working) but on the other hand, then I can also type  "ghost.exe" or  "pqmagic.exe" and press "ENTER" and don't need the menu in the first place!
I wanted something like Hiren's boot CD, to be able to return to the menu automatically as you exit the application(but not with so many applications and with my own design). I hoped that EasyBoot can do it.
If so, please let me know how.
Thanks in advance.

1) You can put ezboot.com in the end of autoexec.bat, just like ghost.exe. Then it will be loaded automatically.
2) There should be additional message other than the copyright.

Thanks for the other tip. Now it loads automatically.
The only(remaining) problem is that now when I exit the application I automatically get the copyright message!  Â But, at least this part is working right!
Do you have any ideas how to return to the menu instead of just getting the copyright message?
I am sure you have something up your sleeve! 
Thanks in advance.

Please download a sample ISO from http://dw.ezbsys.net/testcd.iso , 'Partition Magic' should return back to the main menu on close.

Master Xoben, thank you for the effort, but even the CD made from the ISO image at link you suggested produced only the copyright message without the possibility of doing anything else but rebooting (and I mean, rebooting by pressing the restart button on my computer not typing "exit" or pressing "esc"). Â
It was the same message:
"A:\EZBOOT v 5.10 Copyright © 2002-2006 EZB Systems, Inc.
- "
This "-" on the line below disables any possible action except "restart" button on the computer.
Does this cd work on your computer? Just to mention, all my partitions are NTFS, but this shouldn't be of any relevance.
Although I am racking my brains what is wrong, nothing comes to my mind.
Any suggestions?
