I try to boot Kaspersky updated from HD.

title Kaspersky LiveCD 10
map (hd0,0)/Iso/Kaspersky/rescue/rescueusb.iso (hd32) || map --mem (hd0,0)/Iso/Kaspersky/rescue/rescueusb.iso (hd32)
map --hook
root (hd32)
chainloader (hd32)

but it not work, see screenshot:

Do it have a solution?

Direct ISO boot

Another alternative for direct ISO boot is this  (note do not change the UUID=A1234-1234 line - the UUID must NOT match the actual UUID of your boot device!):

 

menu.lst

 

title Kaspersky Rescue Disk 10 ISO MAP+CDLABEL
set KRD10ISO=/rescue/rescue.iso
set kernel=(0xff)/boot/rescue root=live:UUID=A1234-1234 rootfstype=auto vga=791 init=/init kav_lang=en udev liveimg splash quiet doscsi nomodeset
set initrd=(0xff)/boot/rescue.igz
map %KRD10ISO% (0xff) || map --mem %KRD10ISO% (0xff) 
map --hook > nul && kernel %kernel% && initrd %initrd% && boot

 

 

Files/Folders

menu.lst

grldr  (use 2013 version)

liveusb  (empty file) must be present in root!

\rescue\rescue.iso  (mine was 284,474KB and contiguous)

 

Instead of UUID, you may see some other implementation which uses CDLABEL= - again, if you use CDLABEL= it is important that the value you use for CDLABEL does NOT match the actual volume label of your USB drive!

 

Always test using a real system - it may not work using a VM.

[friske]

where i find "grldr (use 2013 version)"?

[steve6375]

https://code.google..../downloads/list

 

Use 0.4.5c 2013-04-19

[friske]

I have to use "right arrow" and not "down arrow" to select menu item but It not work (also without qEmu):

[steve6375]

Did you have liveusb in root?

[friske]

yes with 0 size.

[steve6375]

iso as \rescue\rescue.iso ??

[friske]

yes c:\rescue\rescue.iso

[steve6375]

So menu.lst sample I gave was completely unaltered by you? The UUID must be WRONG to get it to work!

Sorry for all Q's, but I spent a LOT of time on Kasperksy - see here - to try to figure all this out

@friske
The file name \rescue\rescue.iso is hard encoded.
Create a tag file \liveusb in addition.

Create a empty folder "\Kaspersky Rescue Disk 10.0". Rescue disk stores udates at disk.

having the same problem...........none of this makes much sense to a novice............

[steve6375]

having the same problem...........none of this makes much sense to a novice............

Which problem exactly?

[Mr.Adam]

the topic of this post........

 

I can boot the rescure.iso in my VMplayer fine

 

when I add it to the project (win7PEse) it fails to boot

 

"dracut Warning: Can't mount root filesystem

 

Dropping to debug shell."

 

what menu.lst needs modified?  the only one that I see that calls the rescue disk is menu-custom.lst under %\Target\WIN7PESE\HBCD and the syntax is not like the information above, I have:

 

title Kaspersky Rescue CD iso (Virus Scanner)

find --set-root /kavrescue.iso

map /kavrescue.iso (0xff) || map --mem /kavrescue.iso (0xff)

map --hook

root (0xff)

chainloader (0xff)

 

And

 

title Kaspersky Rescue CD (Virus Scanner)

find --set-root /isolinux/rescue.igz

kernel /isolinux/rescue root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc looptype=squashfs loop=/image.squashfs cdroot quiet noapic

initrd /isolinux/rescue.igz

 

 

Is this the right .lst, or do I need to be looking else where?? 

[Mr.Adam]

Or do I need to crack my finished ISO open, mount the WIM and modify the .lst there?? 

[steve6375]

Does http://www.rmprepusb.../kasperkyrescue

help?

[Mr.Adam]

not really...........the pertinent information on that page appears to be information you have already provided above, the menu.lst entry.  

 

I understand that the entry needs modified.......what .lst, in what location, gets modified? 

 

do i need to change the information before I build, under the Project folder? 

or do I need to change the information of my already built iso (mount virtual drive, copy out files, mount .wim, find .lst, mod entry, commit, unmount, and rebuild my ISO) ???

[steve6375]

OK, so you read this bit then,

 

You actually don't need the ISO file at all, just extract all the ISO files to the USB drive but then copy the \boot folder to the \rescue folder on the USB drive, you can remove the ISO file and liveusb file and use the following menu:

 

title Kaspersky Rescue 10 FLAT FILE\nFlat File boot
#extract whole ISO to root of USB drive - then move \boot folder to under \rescue folder
uuid () > nul
set UUID=%?%
echo %UUID%
kernel /rescue/boot/rescue  root=live:UUID=%UUID% rootfstype=auto vga=791 init=/init kav_lang=en udev liveimg splash quiet doscsi nomodeset
initrd /rescue/boot/rescue.igz

 

 

folder structure for this last menu is (no liveusb file is required)

\rescue\backup folder
\rescue\bases folder
\rescue\boot (has rescue and rescue.igz)
\rescue\LiveOS\squashfs.img
\rescue\BASES.ID
\rescue\KRD.VERSION
\rescue\help folder
\Kaspersky Rescue Disk 10.0    -   empty folder for updates (ensure same folder is not on internal HDD or updates will go to that one instead!)

 

 

 

and you have followed this and the folders are EXACTLY as wanted here?

 

as regards adding it to winpe - I don't see why/how you want to add a linux based ISO to a Windows based OS ???? !!!!!!

No, this information was not pointed out as pertinent, there was alot to take in on that page.  

 

I am not adding it to a windows based OS, I am adding it to the Grub4DOS bootloader that resides in my Win7PESE build.  

 

 maybe that is where some miss-understanding has come into play here, I assumed the OP was doing the same thing, now that i reread it it looks like they are jsut trying to make a working OS from this?????

 

Either way i think this information is what I need........maybe not.........guess I will try it.

title Kaspersky Rescue CD iso (Virus Scanner)
find --set-root /kavrescue.iso
map /kavrescue.iso (0xff) || map --mem /kavrescue.iso (0xff)

The file name \rescue\rescue.iso is hard encoded.
Create a tag file \liveusb in addition.

Do NOT change a hard encoded name. Use the fixed folder and file name.

[Mr.Adam]

I can't even get my grub4dos bootloader to work when I recreate the ISO, it jumps straight into the win7 OS.  My brain is fried at this point and I think I need to pursue this from a different angle.  

[Mr.Adam]

I don't follow.......

IT FREAKING WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!  THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

i just had to pull my head out of my butt and get the right bootloader (grldr).  

[cdob]

I don't follow.......

Rename the downloaded Kapersky ISO file to rescue.iso.
Copy the file rescue.iso to a folder rescue at the USB drive.
Create a file \liveusb at the USB drive.

Adjust menu.lst:
map /rescue/rescue.iso (0xff)
