Ultimate Boot CD

Anyone?

I guess it is dead...

Is this project dead?

I was looking for something like nLite / vLite that's exclusively for UBCD.

I'm no programmer so I have no idea how much work it would take. How difficult would it be to create a program / GUI that would allow us to add what we want to UBCD? Something that would automate the process instead of manually editing files, copying and pasting files, etc.. Has anyone here heard of...

Ok, so DBAN has a new version and it comes as an ISO file you burn to a CD:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/dban/files/

How do we add this new version of DBAN to UBCD v5?

What do I do with that file? Do I simply copy it and overwrite an existing version of it in the UBCD ISO?

I'm having this issue as well.

I got it to work from the UBCD USB flash drive by manually changing the USB flash drive in the BIOS from auto to HDD mode. Now though, I get to this screen in HDDErase (both v4.0 and v3.3) and it just hangs there: http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/4185/hdderasehang.jpg It sounds like the hard drive i...

Spoke too soon. While it works fine on an old (~5 years) PC in the living room, it doesn't work on my PC (built last year). When I run either HDDErase v4.0 or v3.3 from the USB flash drive or CD (SATA optical drive), I get: BOOTDRV: A: RAMDRV: Q: UBCD: Error!!! missing hdderase.bat (check CD) Press ...

The UBCD2USB isn't working for me. Before starting, I ejected all other USB devices, then FAT32 formatted my 1GB USB flash drive. Tried UBCD2USB and get this error when it's copying files to the USB flash drive: UBCD2USB: Copying files to USB KEY... 318 File(s) copied (ERROR) Missing 'K:\ubcd\tools\...

What about when booting from UBCD on a SATA optical drive? Is the drive letter important there? Also, the "hdderase3.bat"; I'm not sure where that's from. I only copied and pasted what you posted earlier when making the modifications to the various files in your instructions so I don't kno...

When I run either HDDErase v4.0 or this version I added (v3.3) from the CD and from the UBCD USB flash drive I just created, I get this message: [something about the cdrom being disabled] BOOTDRV: A: RAMDRV: Q: UBCD: Error!!! missing hdderase3.bat (check CD) Press any key to continue... My optical d...

Thanks. It's in there and it's selectable, BUT... when I run either HDDErase v4.0 or this version I added (v3.3) from the CD and from the UBCD USB flash drive I just created, I get this message: [something about the cdrom being disabled] BOOTDRV: A: RAMDRV: Q: UBCD: Error!!! missing hdderase3.bat (c...

How do I create this cab without having all of the cabarc files in it too? The way I'm doing it is I'm copying all the HDDErase v3.3 files to the same folder cabarc.exe is in. When I run the command: cabarc -r -p -m lzx:21 n hdderas3.cab * It puts EVERYTHING (even the cabarc files) into the cab file...

Thanks Victor.

In that code, what happens if I type:

hdderase3_3.cab

instead of what you typed:

hdderas3.cab

Does the UBCD2USB feature work properly now? With the RC versions, I'd always get some kind of error regarding a missing file when trying to boot the USB flash drive I used with UBCD2USB.

HDDErase v3.3 is the only version that works properly with my 160GB Intel G2 SSD. Is there any way to manually add it to UBCD5? I downloaded HDDErase v3.3 from the PC Perspective website: http://go.pcper.com/?id=267X417&url=http%3A%2F%2Fpcper-articlecontent.s3.amazonaws.com%2FHDDErase_3.3.zip th...

I'm experiencing what the OP is as well. Missing bat file when trying to run HDDerase.

It's getting frustrating having to download and burn all these utilities separately since they don't work properly in the UBCD.

Take the *.img file that you created (suppose you named it spinrate.img) Place it in /ubcd/custom/. Edit /ubcd/custom/custom.cfg with Notepad and add: LABEL spinrite MENU LABEL SpinRite LINUX /boot/syslinux/memdisk INITRD /ubcd/custom/spinrite.img APPEND raw You also can gzip the image with 7-zip (...

Anyone know how to add SpinRite to UBCD? When I run SpinRite in Windows, it gives me an option to create an image file that I can burn on CD or put on a floppy. I created the *.img file and extracted the contents. In the *.img file are these files: spinrite.exe config.sys kernel.sys srsplash.sys The...
