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.
