Hi all,
I developed a GUI front-end for syslinux on Windows for easy making of live usb.
It's released under GNU GPL.
http://people.linux.org.tw/~pcman/SysLinuxSetup.zip
Putting this with syslinux.exe and syslinux.com can make the installation safer.
The program only lists removable device to the users with their icons.
If there isn't, the program will prompt the user to insert usb disk.
Besides, it checks whether the selected disk is C:\ or the one with
windows installed.
So, using this GUI frontend can prevent most of the damage due to
misuse of syslinux.
After the user selecting a partition, the program calls syslinux.exe if
the system is NT, and it calls syslinux.com if the system is win 9x.
Using this to install syslinux to usb disk is more user-friendly and fool-proof.
If you run syslinuxsetup.exe with "/p" argument like
SysLinuxSetup.exe /p
Then it won't call syslinux.
Instead, it returns the drive number in its return value.
0 stands for A, 2 for C, 3 dor D, and 25 for Z.
In this way, this can be used in conjunction with other programs.
Please give it a try and leave some comments.
Thank you all. |
