I copied and pasted your exact config for kaspersky and it worked fine for me.

Maybe you need to specify root (hd0,0) above the kernel line in the kaspersky section.

Replace (hd0,0) with what every your actual thumbdrive is. Specifically if you have multiple hard drives in the computer you are testing on this would cause a problem if it's incorrect.

It also wouldn't hurt to put a forward slash in front of boot so that it looks like

loop=/boot/kav/image.squashfs

It is working both ways for me though.

BASES.ID needs to be on the root of the thumbdrive too iirc.

What errors are you getting also?

This is the error i get when i try to boot off of Kapersky or System Rescue CD.

!!Media not found
>>no bootable medium found. Waiting for new devices.
>>looking for the cdrom
>>attempting to mount media:-/dev/sr0
>>attempting to mount media:-/dev/sr1
>>attempting to mount media:-/dev/sda1

>>determining root device...
!!Could not find the root block device in .
Please specify another value or : press Enter for the same. Type 'shell' for a
shell or a to skip...
root block device():

And when i boot konboot, it boots through the kryptos logic screen and the konboot screen, but while on the konboot screen, it says the following

"Dummy BIOS detected, trying to fix SMTP entries...."

Then, it boots up to the windows login screen, but it wont let me bypass the password protection.

Ok guys now i have fixed my kapersky rescue disk. I didn't extract the files other than the folders that were on the iso. Particularly the BASES.id file. Thanks for the help you guys. Now i have to get System Rescue CD. Are there any files on system rescue cd that have to be placed in the root of the drive?

yes, recuecd and initram.igz. So your menu would be something like this:

title System Rescue CD: repair unbootable or otherwise. damaged computer systems

root (hd0,0)

kernel /rescuecd initrd=initram.igz video=ofonly vga=0 scandelay=5

initrd /initram.igz

Okay, System Rescue CD, and Konboot still refuse to boot. And I also need some help with Hawk PE.

title Hawk PE
find --set-root /HAWKPE-43-DVD.iso
map /HAWKPE-43-DVD.iso (hd32)
map --hook
root (hd32)
chainloader (hd32)

title System Rescue CD
root (hd0,0)
kernel /rescuecd initrd=initram.igz video=ofonly vga=0 scandelay=5
initrd /initram.igz

title Kon-Boot-test: Bypass Logon for Windows and Linux - Login name is root.
map --mem /FD0-konboot-v1.1-2in1.img (fd0)
map --hook
chainloader (fd0)+1
map (hd1) (hd0)
map --hook
rootnoverify (fd0)

Ok guys i actually got the Hawk PE iso to boot. And the only thing i had to do was add one line that read 'boot'.

title Hawk PE
find --set-root /HAWKPE-43-DVD.iso
map /HAWKPE-43-DVD.iso (hd32)
map --hook
root (hd32)
chainloader (hd32)
boot

Sometimes i feel like a real newb.

It has to do with the emulation being lost when Windows boots. I successfully created a PE that loads into RAMdisk from the first link, although you might find the other two useful:
