Hello All,
In advance apologize for my English.
I am just about to finding the best solution for my goal which is to build a multiboot ISO toolkit on usb stick.
So far I used Sardu and it does the job but it is little bit complex.
Yesterday I tried to test Xboot v1.0beta14 and I was very impressed with its easy to use interface.
Unfortunately I have encountered on few problems and I hope someone from the Xboot experts could help me and deal with these problems very easily.
Please see details of my testing with XBoot.
USB stick was formatted as a fat32 and selected bootloader was Syslinux (Recommended)
At the end of creating on my local PC (Win 7 Ultimate 32-bit) Multiboot USB I got the final confirmation that USB was created successfully and I could check my compilation in QEMU emulator. Also checked in real mode on that PC and all worked excellent.
But….
Thereafter I tried to start up my new magic usb stick from my both laptops (64-bit operating systems (win7 and xp)) and my luck has ended up on “SYSLINUX 4.04 EDD 2011-04-18 H. Peter Anvin et al”
I found on the internet that formatting usb a as fat instead of fat32 should resolve this problem. So I did it but after booting up usb stick my luck has stopped (frozen) again but this time on the Xboot menu with no options to do anything except power off my laptop. Exactly the same happen on my second laptop.
I thought that the problem is related to 32 or 64-bit platform, so I did the same procedure on my 64bit laptop but unfortunately the same problem persists.
So, if someone kind had experienced similar issues or know how to fix these problems and joy the power of Xboot I would be very grateful for help.
Regards,
Kristof
