Would like to add Kon-Boot

Good Day,

Love the software 2.0.3! I downloaded and tried the Beta 2.0.4 so I could add Kryptos Logic's Kon-Boot software, but have failed all attempts so far. I purchased the Kon-Boot software which has three directories, a floppy image install, a CD-ROM ISO, and a USB drive install. The software from Kryptos works by itself, but when I try to install it to the USB drive using Sardu 2.0.4, the USB drive errors at bootup. Has anyone installed Kon-Boot using Sardu? If so, how did you do it? I believe this would be a great tool to add to the USB drive image. All help is appreciated...

Here is a post from another guy at reboot.pro, all credit goes to user: avgsmoe

Kon-Boot

1) I created konboot folder ("SARDU Drive":\konboot) and added img file from
http://www.piotrbani...m/all/kon-boot/

2)Then added reference in utility.cfg ("SARDU Drive":\menu\utility.cfg)

label Boot from KonBoot
Menu label Boot from ^KonBoot
MENU INDENT 1
LINUX /boot/grub.exe
APPEND --config-file="find --set-root /konboot/konboot.lst;configfile /konboot/konboot.lst"


3)Created konboot.lst to put in the konboot folder created in step 1 ("SARDU Drive":\konboot) Can be done with most text editors.

foreground = FFFF80
background = FF0000
timeout 0
default /default

title KONBOOT
map --mem /konboot/konboot.img (fd0)
checkrange 0x80 read 0x8280 && map (hd0) (hd1)
checkrange 0x80 read 0x8280 && map (hd1) (hd0)
map --hook
chainloader (fd0)+1
rootnoverify (fd0)


4) Boot and test.

The file must be the Floppy one that is normally used when you create konboot for a usb. I had to just rename it to the correct name and it works great. Hope this helps.
