See Tutorial #31 and try it. It works. Read Tutorial #31 and then come back if any Q's. Link is in my signature at bottom.

AFAIK firadisk/winvblock do have *something* that passes the .iso file name to the driver.Anyone know how to do this?
BUT I am not sure I get it.Now if only there was some way to pass the name of the ISO via grub4dos ( (rd) perhaps?? ) to the command console session.. If I set the name of the ISO in (rd) using grub4dos menu entry and then loaded ImDisk - could it see that (rd) drive and read the iso filename, then mount it in ImDisk - job done and only one menu.lst entry to edit for each iso.

Thanks - this works!!! The CR.TXT file must be over 2K if used on an NTFS flash drive. The MYISO.CMD is a copy of CR.TXT. CR.TXT is just full of CRLF's.
- One way is to use write command in GRUB4DOS to write ISO file name (or the whole line that call imdisk) to existing cmd file in UFD.

Does that also mean that if that answer file is ignored, next one would be used if contains valid settings for the particular pass?If an answer file is found in one of the valid locations, it must include a valid configuration pass. If an answer file is found and it includes no settings for the given configuration pass that is running, that answer file will be ignored.
Windows Setup automatically searches for an answer file every time a configuration pass starts.

How does that help when you have 4 ISOs and 4 menu.lst entries?
@ECHO off SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION SET /A Counter=0 ECHO. FOR /F "tokens=2 delims==" %%A IN ('type menu.lst^|FIND "#SET MYISO"') DO ( SET ISO!counter!=%%A ECHO !counter!. SET ISO!counter!=%%A SET /A Counter +=1 ) :loop_input ECHO. SET MYISO#=0 SET /P MYISO#= Please input one of the numbers above, or press ENTER for default [0]: IF %MYISO#% geq %counter% GOTO :loop_input ECHO SET MYISO= !ISO%MYISO#%!

None - if you download them to the hard drive and then use RMPrepUSB to prepare a USB drive and copy the files over using RMPrepUSB Copy Files function ;-)Download 5 large ISO files. Transfer them to USB. How many of them will be fragmented?
