Anyone know how to add a floppy image? I'd love to see this added in a future update, but for know adding it by hand will work If I could get an example menu entry....

Thanks,
Scott....

I will add the support for floppy images eventually.
Till then you can use following entry in your menu files.


Lets assume you have floppy image named "memtest.img" inside the folder "images".

For grub4dos the entry should be.

title memtest

find --set-root /images/memtest.img

map /images/memtest.img (fd0) || map --mem /images/memtest.img (fd0)

map --hook

chainloader (fd0)+1

rootnoverify (fd0)




For syslinux the entry should be.

LABEL memtest

  MENU LABEL memtest

  LINUX memdisk

  INITRD /images/memtest.img

  APPEND floppy



Read these documents for more example.
