New install.gz via imdisk #240

Closed abdullah-erturk closed 4 years ago

abdullah-erturk commented 4 years ago

The imgdrive application was not very healthy, so I edited the imdisk application unattended.

Thanks to this file, both Windows installation iso files and WinPE iso files will be directly mounted to the Y:\ drive.

Master a1ive, please add this work to your project.

install.gz

Does this run Setup Repair so that the user can repair a Windows OS? To run Repair you need to run X:\Setup.exe.

abdullah-erturk commented 4 years ago

It does not run direct repair, if Windows iso file is selected, it mounted to Y:\ drive and goes directly to the setup screen. If WinPE iso file is selected, it mounted WinPE iso file to Y:\ drive.

Thanks to any WinPE (Sergei etc) Repairs can be run.

a1ive commented 4 years ago

Thanks, but I don't think it's a good idea to mount ISO to Y:. see https://github.com/a1ive/grub2-filemanager/issues/101#issuecomment-642578993

abdullah-erturk commented 4 years ago

The drive letter Y:\ must be universal, because it is a letter used in the most common WinPE works :)

a1ive commented 4 years ago

It's not universal. I've found many Chinese WinPE won't load programs if we mount ISO to Y:.

abdullah-erturk commented 4 years ago

I understand I'm just making a joke :)

abdullah-erturk commented 4 years ago

I can edit it as A:\ or B:\ if you want.

My preference is A:\

Because in my WinPE work, all programs run from the drive B:\ :)
