ERD commander

You can run other software by placing their icons on the ERD desktop.

At the root of the CD, create a directory: programs
So you will have the following structure:

CD + i386
+ documents and settings
+ programs + 2xfr
+ ecalc
+ winrar
win51
win51is
bootsect.bin
winbom.ini
license.txt
For this, you need to edit the file in i386/system32 DT.CFG with Notepad and modify it like this, for example:

shortcut
name My Computer
position 10, 10

shortcut
name 2xExplorer
position 10, 110
icon %SystemDrive%\Programs\2xfr\2xfr.exe
program %SystemDrive%\Programs\2xfr\2xfr.exe

shortcut
name Calculator
position 10, 310
icon %SystemDrive%\Programs\ecalc\ecalc.exe
program %SystemDrive%\Programs\ecalc\ecalc.exe

shortcut
name WinRar 3.30
position 10, 410
icon %SystemDrive%\Programs\winrar\winrar.exe
program %SystemDrive%\Programs\winrar\winrar.exe

Try all, not everything works!

For example, I tried to run Partition Magic 8 with the following command:

program %SystemDrive%\Programs\partitionmagic 8.0\PMagicNT.exe/pqb=B:\pq8.pqb

to avoid the error 600 due to the file that PQ Magic should create, but ERD does not recognize the command.

Hello

I'm currently testing this software

To make the image bootable, you just need to open an already created image with Nero, in your case, I’m thinking of an ISO.

However, if you have all the files from ERD

with Nero
create a bootable CD
boot image: bootsector.bin
no emulation
Joliet
Joliet 9660

and then put all the files from the temporary ERD directory onto your CD.

Thank you very much for your reply, I hope everything is going well for you. I just tried another one and it's great. This software is really awesome.

Hi Mickael,
If you already have all those softwares on the PC to be fixed, can't you use them?
If not, then it's not possible, so your command is really useful, thanks for the tip. If you have more, don't hesitate.

No for pq magic but for adaward it’s better to launch it from the PC, but anyway if it’s not on the hard drive you just need to copy the adaward folder to the PC and launch it.

Apparently there is information on the 911cd forum but it's in English.

Hello,
Actually, I'm also testing ERD COMMANDER, and I'm having trouble making it bootable. I have the following files:
I386 which is 148 MB
license.txt which is 12 KB
win51ip which is 1 KB
win51 which is 1 KB
bootsect.bin which is 2 KB
winbom.ini which is 1 KB

I tried burning it once, but the CD didn't boot
I was advised to create an autorun, but I don't know which file it should boot from. If anyone has any ideas regarding the bootable file, I would appreciate it,
Thanks everyone

Robert

go higher

you go to any site that explains how to create a bootable cd of w2000 or xp and you do the same with erd it's basically the same system

with nero

create a bootable cd

option

boot image: bootsector.bin
no emulation
joliet
joliet 9660

it's not well explained so do like above on google search create a bootable cd xp

Hello

I finally managed to burn the CD and it booted,
but there is another problem that arises:

- When the CD boots, it doesn’t launch the ERD Commander system,
it opens a DOS session: CALDERA DR-DOS 7.03

What I would like to know is how to make it open the ERD COMMANDER application
I would be grateful for your responses
thank you in advance

Robert
