Okay. So Upon trying Xboot 5 times, putting a fkton of wear and tear on my drive, computer and patience, I've come to the conclusion that this program needs some major tweaks.

Attempted with the following ISOs

Mint DVD ISO
Clonezilla ISO
Hirens ISO
UBCD ISO

Okay, so UBCD gave errors, so I ditched it.

Each time I got the others to work, Xboot showed successful completion without errors. I tested in QEMU and it worked fine. Okay, cool. Here's the kicker.

Booted up in my old dell (now a server running Ubuntu), and to my dismay, none of the programs worked. Really? Wtf? I spent that much time on the research and getting it going that it doesn't work?

Mint comes up with an error relating to BusyBox and the image not being able to be found (I confirmed, it's in the place it's looking and named properly)
Following the directions on the site, I used Grub4Dos emulation for Hirens. Thanks, useless as well, as when selecting Hirens it just goes to Grub. WTF?
Clonezilla comes up with a cannot read error and fails

Honestly. I wanna know why people have to write these programs for EVERY SYSTEM except Mac.

Just my 2c. If anyone has had the errors I got, lemme know so we can bitch together. Bye bye 5 years of my life and 1 year of my Drive/Computer.
