Greetings.
This post follows my other concurrent post ("gparted how to")
regarding future plans for PartedMagic & UBCDos.
Will PM be a fixed element of v5?
Could/Would UBCDos make PM an optional element?
What is UBCDos going to do as PM releases new versions?
Is UBCDos going to issue a new release as well or
will one be able to integrate (or not) the latest PM release?
I don't know anything about the topic,
because I am "late to the party" ...
Thank you.

I could not try PM 3.7 on the old XP laptop,
because UBCDos 5.0.12ß would not boot
under UBCD4W 3.22 on the old XP laptop.
I don't know if that is an (un)intended consequence ...
I haven't tried UBCDos 5.0.12߻UBCD4W
on my modern XP laptops nor on a CD by itself.
I prefer to have one full CD with both UBCDs
instead of two half full CDs with each UBCD on a separate CD.
GParted 0.3.4-11»UBCDos 4.11»UBCD4W 3.22 works just fine.
I could try PM3.7»UBCDos4.11»UBCD4W 3.22 ...
I don't know (yet) if the PM»UBCDos 4.11 instructions have changed.
I'm not sure it matters which flavor of gParted I use ...
I will be sure to keep my UBCDos 4.11 iso.

Parted Magic will be a 'core' component of UBCD50. I don't think that there will be a new version of the UBCD50 branch when there is a new release of Parted Magic. It is up to Victor to decide.
If you can't integrate UBCD50 with UBCD4WIN, than the UBCD plugin of UBCD4WIN doesn't work / isn't up to date any more. Complain at the UBCD4WIN forum.

Greetings.
Thanks for the reply.
If UBCDos wants to reply to my feedback as complaining,
I don't care. That is a reflection on UBCDos.
I'm sure the UBCD4W people will have fun
making new PM/UBCDos MultiBoot plugins.
I will state the following:
Not taking into account all other changes
to UBCDos between 4.11 & 5 (with which I am not familiar),
4.11 is (imho) better than 5 with regards to PM -
because users could always integrate
the latest PM release into 4.11.
I still hope you or someone will at sometime
update the steps for integrating PM 3.7 or 4x into UBCD 4.11.
Thank you.

Greetings.
it seems there is (now) more than one way to build a "MultiBoot" Rescue USB stick ...
it seems I could put/boot builds/isos of UBCD4W & UBCDOS (& other projects as well ...) on/from the same USB stick ...
Probably next year I will have time to give that a try.
Right now I am trying to tye-up loose ends on the "old-way" of doing things.
that has UBCDOS 4.11 rolled into it (and has PM 3.7 rolled into 4.11).
I should find out this week ...
Out of curiousity I am trying to make that build work when I use the UBCD4W UB2USB utility.
Maybe I have worked out how to boot the PM 3.7 directly from Grub4DOS.
I should find out this week ...
I am trying to deduce how to boot the UBCDOS 4.11 via G4DOS when I put that CD/RW build on a USB stick with UB2USB.
The UBCD4W MultiBoot CD/RW entry for 4.11 iswhich calls an isolinux.cfgThe 2 types of DBAN entries are like:There is/are no "images" for 4.11 itself. The rollup unpacks the 4.11 iso;
so I'm guessing I need to make some kind of G4DOS lst entry likebut I really have no idea ... what about the "KERNEL menu.c32" part?
any helpful replies/insights appreciated ...
Greetings.

The UBCD4W MultiBoot CD/RW entry for 4.11 is
Code: Select all
/isolinux/isolinux.bin; Launch "UBCDOS 4.11"; ^ Collection of console-mode utilities + Parted Magic 3.7
Code: Select all
DISPLAY startup.msg
PROMPT 1
TIMEOUT 100

ONTIMEOUT boot
LABEL boot
KERNEL chain.c32

LABEL main
KERNEL menu.c32
APPEND /menus/main.cfg
Code: Select all
/isolinux/isolinux.bin ; dban ; dban ; /images/dban.bzi nuke="dwipe" silent
Code: Select all
title dban
kernel /images/dban.bzi nuke="dwipe" silent
so I'm guessing I need to make some kind of G4DOS lst entry like
