Setup & Installation / Re: Need help with QSINIT Loader
« on: September 22, 2014, 08:12:39 am »
Hi Ivan,
Hi Walking_X,
this have been my next steps:
- updated the in UPDCD2.61 included memboot files (dated 2006) with those from 2009
- builded based on this the new DVD files
- changed the config.sys
- copied the from QSINIT291 needed files and more to \OS2IMAGE\DISK_0 and packed them
-> so here everything as before
then I used e_pf.exe to look into the \UPDCD\BURN\BOOTIMGS\BOOTDISK.PF
- the files that I packed and copied before are not included. That proofs that the steps before (copying to DISK_0) did not add something to bootdisk.pf, so what you already said is allright and I am able to follow these steps
I guess that UPDCD when booting the DVD "just" takes averything that is inside BOOTDISK.PF into MEMDISK.PF.
It boots the files from DISK_0 but in memory there are the files of BOOTDISK.PF - so
-> QSLoader is started from the root of the DVD (named OS2LDR)
-> Does QSLoader expects to find QSINIT.LDI in the root of the DVD or in the "Memory Drive" Z: ?
-> to proof this I copied the QSINIT.LDI file into the root directory of the DVD, so in \UPDCD\BURN
-> to get in Memory Drive Z: I gues I have to include it in Bootdisk.PF
Therefore I copied the files that I copied before to DISK_0 to the extracted BOOTDISK.PF Directory.
No I would like to pack this Directory back or convert it in the BOOTDISK.PF file format.
Do you know what I have to do (wich command from memdisk) to achieve this?
Thank you in advance!!
Sigurd
