bootAble 3.7 available

March 20, 2005 by Hayo Baan

Hello bootAble users,

I've released an updated version of bootAble. Version 3.7 is basically a maintenance release and contains only minor enhancements and bug-fixes. Apart from the regular .zip archive, bootAble is now also available as .wpi, including Config Maker written by Doug Bissett. Config Maker helps you to, even more, easily create bootAble CD's and maintenance partitions.

v3.7 (20/03/2005)

* Added known problems/limitations section in the documentation(problems with the latest versions of mozilla and firefox and a note on BackAgain/2000);
* Mario Guzman contributed bootAble.unimaint and bootAble.spf;
* Updated bootAble.ba2wks; additional directories copied and it now automatically adds the required (IDE) tape drive drivers (thanks Mario Guzman);
* Added tmscsiw.add to the list of valid SCSI drivers;
* Now determining TCP/IP level automatically (TCPIP431);
* The EPM-file default.bmp not part of standard eCS 1.2 distribution anymore and is made optional (thanks Chris Brendes);
* The pmvdrop.dll file is not part of the later PMView versions and is made optional (thanks Doug Bissett);
* Corrected bootAble.mozilla (you would receive a file not found error if you had already specified EXTRADLLFILES);
* Adapted bootAble.firefox, the gcc and libc libraries are now also placed in the default directory;
* Fixed a problem with building a memdisk bootAble CD with HPFS386 support;
* Fixed problem with copying files to directories with spaces;
* Corrected reference to section in bootAble.cfg the file destinations are set ("DESTINATION configuration options");
* Corrected error messages from the xcopy command;
* Fixed problem with setting multiline variables (e.g., EXTRACONFIGSYS).
