hello,

I would like to add the knoppix 5.1 (cd-version / 700mb) to my vista-pe-cd... and add an entry at the grub-menu....

Are there any scripts for doing so?

It would be great if anybody could help me...

Thanks....

Yep, but you cannot start a new thread for each item you want to add. ;)

These are all questions about grub4dos - which is used in VistaPE (NOT grub) and not strictly VistaPE related, as the same settings can be used on any grub4dos' (and sometimes in grub also :thumbup: ) menu.lst.

Knoppix is a bit problematic as new releases sometimes change the way it needs to be invoked.

Start with the entry listed here:
http://www.911cd.net...o...c=18846&hl=

for DSL (which is knoppix based),
then check here:
http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/
and/or here:
http://www.knoppix.n...ewforum.php?f=9

what is the suggested code for the version you have.

Ok,

I took a DSL 4.2.5 ISO....... with a script I unpacked it to the root-folder of my CD, the "isolinux-folder" to "boot"-folder....

In grub (Create-ISO-Script) I added the following lines:

TXTAddLine,"%MenuFile%","title Damn Small Linux","Append"
TXTAddLine,"%MenuFile%","find --set-root /grldr /","Append"
TXTAddLine,"%MenuFile%","kernel /linux24 ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=us apm=power-off vga=791 initrd=minirt24.gz nomce noapic qemu quiet BOOT_IMAGE=knoppix frugal","Append"
TXTAddLine,"%MenuFile%","initrd /minirt24.gz","Append"


(I TOOK THESE LINES FROM YOUR LINK)


While booting I got the error17: Find --set -root /grldr FILE NOT FOUND
