The Definitive USBMultipass Config


Battosia83

Recommended Posts

has anyone managed to get a persistent USB install working for BT4 Pre final? I'm guessing the same thing that has to be done with trinity has to be done with BT4 pre - ie: have back track install it's self on the USB, not just copy the files over from the ISO.

let me know what the secret is for this one, thanks.

I'm fairly shocked nobody has started with "Katana"!

http://www.hackfromacave.com/katana.html

UBCD, Slax, Ophcrack, DSL, DVL, tons of useful utils on the UBCD 4 windows, and a ton of portable stuff - wireshark, OpenOffice, unstoppable copier, etc

All this in an ISO and you just mount it up, copy the files, run a .sh

Downside is you need at least an 8GB.

Actually I recently reached out to the creator in the feature request subforum to inquire about becoming a contributor to his project. I put together some files and configs to update his project with the latest UBCD 5.0 RC1. Still haven't heard back, but we'll see I guess...

I too just recently posted. (daem0ninflux)

It's not a very active forum. Did you hear back from the developer?

not to hijack the forum. Enjoy the effort to correlate everyone's efforts!

I plan on getting grub to bootload to syslinux so I can have my Multipass that chains to Katana.

So hard to divide myself up between this and jasager :P

A way for Windows users (Me) to create splashimages

If this was answered i do apologize for the redundancy.

You can use gimp for windows. Do all the image processing that Darren went through in that show. Then save the file as a BMP. Using the imagemagick win32 port of the command "convert" to convert the BMP to a xpm.gz :

convert imagename.bmp imagename.xpm.gz

You can pick up the latest binaries from here: http://www.imagemagick.org/download/binaries/

Im using ImageMagick-6.6.2-Q16-windows.zip currently.

I have the Dell Diagnostic CD and WinPe running on my drive.

Dell diagnostics (use the iso)

title Dell Diagnostics
find --set-root /delldiags.iso
map --mem /delldiags.iso (hd32)
map --hook
root (hd32)
chainloader (hd32)

And Winpe (extracted to the root of the drive)

title WinPE
chainloader /boot/bootmgr
Grub2

It may run differentially for someone else, I made my multiboot with this which recently popped up on Lifehacker.

Parted Magic with custom folder (.iso) with parameter iso_filename, you can use keymap too, look here

title Parted Magic 6.7

find --set-root /PartedMagic/pmagic-6.7.iso

map --heads=0 --sectors-per-track=0 /PartedMagic/pmagic-6.7.iso (hd32)

map --hook

root (hd32)

kernel /pmagic/bzImage edd=off load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 rw vga=normal loglevel=9 max_loop=256 vmalloc=256MiB iso_filename=/PartedMagic/pmagic-6.7.iso

initrd /pmagic/initramfs

map --unmap=0:0xff

re. making 14 colour images. You may find some useful tips at rmprepusb site here. You can just drag and drop any 640x480 image onto a desktop icon and it will convert it to the correct format - see section SplashImage CONVERSION METHOD 1.
Also explains how to use GFXMenu images too. With recent grub4dos versions (chenall 2012) you can just use a large .bmp or bmp.gz file and have hi-res, hi-color backgrounds - no need for 14-colour images!

Cant access either of the links provied in the first post, requested access last week but still not been granted. If this is what you call definitve im dissapointed. I realise they have probably been protected because of malicious users but why not just export a copy to pdf so we can have access.
