Alright, I just set this up and I'm having a few issues I'm wondering if anyone else has come across. I'm experimenting with it but in the meantime I'd appreciate any input :)
Firstly, I tried to install:
BackTrack 3
Kon-Boot
Hiren's BootCD
ntpasswd
DBAN
FreeDOS
Memtest86
This is my menu.lst:
color red/black black/red
timeout 120
title BackTrack 3
root (hd0,0)
kernel /bootbt3/vmlinuz vga=0x317 ramdisk_size=6666 root=/dev/ram0 rw quiet
initrd=/bootbt3/initrd.gz
boot
title Kon-Boot
map --mem /FD0-konboot-v1.1-2in1.img (fd0)
map --hook
chainloader (fd0)+1
map (hd1) (hd0)
map --hook
rootnoverify (fd0)
title Hiren's BootCD
find --set-root /hirens/HBCD/boot.gz
map --mem /hirens/HBCD/boot.gz (fd0)
map --hook
chainloader (fd0)+1
rootnoverify (fd0)
map --floppies=1
boot
title Offline NT Passwd Reset
kernel /ntpasswd/vmlinuz rw vga=1 initrd=/ntpasswd/initrd.cgz /ntpasswd/scsi.cgz
initrd /ntpasswd/initrd.cgz
title DBAN
kernel /memdisk
initrd /dban.img
title FreeDOS
root (hd0,2)
kernel /memdisk
initrd /freedos.img floppy
title Memtest86
kernel /memtest/ISOLINUX/MEMTEST
And this is my folder structure for the USB drive:
+---bootbt3
¦ +---dos
¦ +---isolinux
¦ +---syslinux
+---BT3
¦ +---base
¦ +---modules
¦ +---optional
¦ +---rootcopy
¦ +---tools
¦ +---WIN
+---ntpasswd
+---memtest
¦ +---ISOLINUX
+---hirens
+---HBCD
+---Vdefs
+---WinTools
+---files
In that root drive folder I have:
grldr
menu.lst
memdisk
FD0-konboot-v1.1-2in1.img
dban.img
freedos.img
Now I'm having the following issues:
ntpasswd - No disk drivers found (boots okay, program doesn't work)
FreeDOS - Grub error: Partition not found
Hiren's - "Cannot find HBCD folder" error when I try to start any app (boots okay)
BackTrack 3 - Grub loads it okay, but it's just a black screen
