File Name: QEMU
File Submitter: roytam1
File Submitted: 25 Feb 2012
File Category: Tools

QEMU is a generic and open source machine emulator and virtualizer.
When used as a machine emulator, QEMU can run OSes and programs made for one machine (e.g. an ARM board) on a different machine (e.g. your own PC). By using dynamic translation, it achieves very good performance.

grldr not 1.44 floppy

$

hi guys,
I'm trying to make a grldr floppy.
Made it in Winimage, format 1.68.

I made 1.44Mb grldr in the past, never other formats.

Using bootlace is OK with 'normal formats, but once you look into less usual ones,
it gets somewhat tricky for me.
Bootlace.com --floppy --chs --fat12 --sectors-per-track=21 --heads=2 --total-sectors=3360 img.img
I probably even made a mistake in this quick test, anyhow I use boot build by Roadkill.
Btw, result in Qemu is disk error.

Diddy, Help! Any help appreciated really.

WES7 + EWF - boot from read-only USB?

$
0
0
Hi all,

I've been experimenting with trying to get WES7, after successfully installing it onto a USB - to boot from the same USB after flipping its "hardware read-only switch" on, on a diskless computer.

The USB read-only status is controlled by a physical switch (much like with CF cards) - so the moment i flip it on, it won't accept writes.

I've configured EWF to work in RAM REG mode, which works fine as long as the USB is not switched to read-only - and the behavior is 'read-only' since all changes go to RAM and are dumped upon reboot.

Yet, if I switch the USB read-only on, it will BSOD on boot with 0x0000006B consistently.

After doing some reading on the two different EWF modes - RAM and RAM Reg, it seems like both of them still require writable media to be present to store the "EWF volume" (e.g. either 'unpartitioned space on the disk' in RAM mode, or the 'system's registry' in RAM Reg mode) - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff793751(v=winembedded.60)

So, unless there is a way to somehow force the "EWF Volume" to reside in RAM as well, it seems like it will not be possible to boot from a hardware-read-only-USB on a diskless computer (with no writable disks that could be used as the "EWF Volume").
  • Is the above correct?
  • Is there a known way to force the EWF volume to also reside in RAM?
  • Any workarounds to boot the OS from RAM?

Thanks!

WDS with LTSP

Good day,

I am trying to integrate a WDS server and an Ubuntu LTSP server on the same network.
At this point if I have the MS DHCP Server active the WDS Server boots fine and works as expected
If I have the Ubuntu DHCP server active LTSP boots fine and works as expected.

When trying to integrate the two systems I have an issue

note: I have disabled the quiet splash and plymouth options to see what is happening during boot.

Now the problem is as follow in this configuration ALL items defined in the WDS server's default file work fine with the exception of the LTSP entries when I boot these it actually starts booting from the Ubuntu LTSP server but I keep getting nbd timeouts when LTSP tries to mount the NBD device I have tried with a couple of other strings and options but do not seem to be getting anywhere, it would appear that for some reason the nbd-server cannot be contacted (or I saw once it tries to find the nbd-server on the wds server)

If anyone can point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance

Hello

I'm trying to make a MultiBoot USB with Windows XP, Windows 7 and Hiren's Boot Cd


I made it with Grub4Dos and Firadisk loading ISO's directly.


But the WinXp installation failed, and Win7 installation was very slowly.

Now i'm trying to make it extracting the ISO to make the installation faster, but i don't know how to do it.


Thanks in advance

It is gfxboot @DED-LEGO@

(the gfxboot with the configuration directly from "menu.lst")


1. @DED-LEGO@ can be configured directly from the menu.lst. For this purpose, a few recent titles of menu.lst are used as "technical".
2. @DED-LEGO@ allows each item in menu.lst to associate with a logo (Logo_xx.jpg) and with a text file (Logo_xx.txt).
3. @DED-LEGO@ provides three types of timers: circular, linear and numeric.
4. @DED-LEGO@ provides marquee for promotional purposes. The text for marquee is taken from the file RLineDef.txt.
5. @DED-LEGO@ allows you to use WaitPanel for a brief description of the menu item.
6. @DED-LEGO@ expands design options of gfxboot through the use of animation.
7. @DED-LEGO@ has a built-in multi-font support. <NEW!>...view fonts from 01 to 14...
8. @DED-LEGO@ has a built-in multi-background support. <NEW!> ...more...
9. @DED-LEGO@ extends the security capabilities of gfxboot through the use of hidden menu entries and customizable hot keys.

Hello,

i found a problem!
I used the windows "backup and restore" utility to create a backup.

if i want to restore the image with the option "Format and repartition disks", the error "The system image restore failed. Error details: The specified object was not found. (0x80042308)" appears.

I searched a solution, but i found nothing!

I hope someone can help me to solve the problem!

Thanks

Win7PE-SE issue - Taking Ownership of Files

$

I ran into a problem using Win7PE-SE trying to take ownership of files (In Windows Explorer, Right-Click->Properties->Security Tab->Advanced Button->Ownership Tab->Edit Button)..

This displays a dialog box with the following error:

Windows Security
-----------------------
Can't open access control editor. Invalid value for registry

As a result, I am unable to take the ownership of the files I need in order to set their permissions to make them accessible so that I can move them to another hard drive..

Any suggestions? Fixes?

This thread is reserved for people reporting their success using newish releases of grub4dos that allow for direct booting to a .iso imaging through mappig the ISO image to (hd32).

Ideally, any user who had some success with this way of booting can post here reporting what he succeeded with and how he did it, links to other boards, tutorials guides related to the matter are also welcome.

PLEASE NO request for help here, post them in the grub4dos forum.

PLEASE NO "Nice, thank you!" kind of posts.

PLEASE NO "Ha, this is not useful!" type of comments.

This thread should become simply a list of working setups, no more, no less. :)

Thanks for cooperation.

This is a One Click Driver Backup Solution.

Very simple to use...
Run the "DriverGrabber 2.0.exe" and watch it Grab all of the drivers from your system and place them into a "Drivers" folder!

It now even grabs drivers that are no longer in use... For instance... a Printer Driver that is no longer physically connected to your system while you perform a backup.

Also... you can now use DriverGrabber on a Windows PE disk like LiveXP! It auto detects if it is being executed in a PE environment... it will attempt to auto detect the Windows Drive you wish to backup as well.

There are also many other tricks to using DriverGrabber. Many new options can be placed in the settings file (DriverGrabber.ini) which was introduced in Beta 4!

More info and the latest version can always be found here:
http://integrator.siginetsoftware.com/index.php?addons&id=242

Please be sure to test it for yourself and give me as much feedback as possible!

Thanks,

File Category: App scripts

RidNacs is a very fast disk space usage analyzer for Microsoft Windows. It scans your local drives, network drives or single directories and produces a tree view with a percentage bar chart column. This gives the user a quick and easy way to identify the largest directories and it's very useful for cleaning up the disk.
The result of the scan can be exported in different formats (XML, HTML, CSV, TXT), so it could be printed or compared with future scans.
Besides of all these benefits RidNacs has an outstanding scan performance and it scores with a small memory footprint.


Thanks to Stephan Plath!

by allow to include RidNacs (within the script)


New Functions in RidNacs 2.0
  • Files smaller than a configurable size can be grouped
  • Files can be opened and deleted inside of RidNacs
  • Explorer context menu is supported
  • Associated file icons are retrieved in a background thread (improved performance)
  • Style of the percentage bar is configurable (Skins)
  • A new favorites list combines drives with most recent used directories
  • Incomplete scanned directories are tagged with a symbol
  • Another XML format for saving the analysis result
  • Preferences dialog
  • Network drives are now displayed in the "Choose Directory" dialog

Add youtube video on profile page

You can now add a youtube video onto your member profile.

Not much of a groundbreaking news but it is a new feature available to those who wish to try it out.


Just visit this link: http://reboot.pro/in...re&area=youtube

Then add the video id (not the URL).

For example, when you want to add this video:

You just need to add this ID:
syOK6zmpOe0

Then click "Save changes".

Attention: You only need to press the "Save changes" once. If the video is displayed on the resulting page then it means that it was saved. I'm mentioning this as it might seem that you have to press two times and if you do so, it will just save the second time as blank.


The plugin provides options such as auto-start and the ability to run a playlist as well.


If Jaclaz/Wonko would be around to reply, I am quite sure that he would love to comment about this useful feature.. :)

In either case, have fun!

Bypass NTFS Permissions

$
0

Ntfs security may prohibit access to files.
That's a draw back at data rescue.

Known approach: take ownership and change permíssion
This require addional write to hard disk.
Avoid writing to source disk at data rescue.

seseberg mentioned a solution: http://www.boot-land.net/forums/index.php?...ost&p=93201
AccessGain allows acess to files bypassing NTFS permission.

Boot PE, open a explorer, right click a drive and select "Bypass file system security checks".
x86 and x64 PE is possible.
