ExpEnvVar, MEDIA.DRIVE & BootDI HDD image.

Ok, thanks. Obviously, it will be safest to do the scanning for the wanted drive without relaying on the result of ExpEnvVar scan.

"Portable Finder Startup" plugin should accomplish what you are after.

If you use grub4dos to boot a GENA ISO and you get the "Error: no tag file found" message it could be due to grub4dos.

I was using v 0.4.6a 2016-12-24 of grub4dos on one of my systems and got that error. In fact GENA could not read the contents of the WinPE (CD) drive - it said unrecognised file system. I could not understand why. It worked OK on another system. Then it occured to me it might be grub4dos. When I installed grub4dos-0.4.5c-2016-01-18 it worked OK.

In fact the problem I mentioned here : http://theoven.org/index.php?topic=2164.0 might also be due to that.

Hi gbrao,

As you already know, In order to get Gena.iso (CreateISO) boot with grub4dos,
2 ways are, you need firadisk or winvblock
Gena\Drivers\5 Ramdisk\"FiraDisk"
Gena\Drivers\5 Ramdisk\"WinVBlock"

on other topic, you seem to use "FiraDisk" ,
test Gena.iso (CreateISO) with "WinVBlock" with  v0.4.6a 2016-12-24 of grub4dos
let us know how it goes ?

with WinVBlock and  v0.4.6a 2016-12-24 of grub4dos, using wimboot I get the "Error: no tag file found". I need a small ISO thats why I use wimboot.



I'll try with createiso later.

And result ?

haven't had the time, I'll do it this week end.

Used Create ISO. These plugins:
 

G4D menu :



System Intel Haswell + Z87.

g4d 4.6a and no usb thumb drive attached - BSOD 7B
g4d 4.6a and usb thumb drive attached - BSOD 7B


g4d 4.5c and no usb  thumb drive attached - boots OK
g4d 4.5c and usb  thumb drive attached (first boot after starting up system) : BSOD 7F
g4d 4.5c and usb  thumb drive attached (subsequent start ups) : boots OK.


That is, if the system was shut down and then I start it up and try to boot from the ISO with a UFD attached  I get a BSOD.
But the system was booted OK from another windows or pe, then I restart the system and try to boot the ISO with a UFD attached , then it works OK.
Both the above with g4d 4.5c.

I get the "Error: no tag file found". I need a small ISO that's why I use wimboot.

One by one:
Following topic, when you use CreateISO + grub4dos + isoboot , with a successful boot, you do not have "Error: no tag file found" anymore?

No

then you fix the error you have. 

Further:
For SE or Gena, when you boot with from .iso (via grub4dos, grub, isolinux etc.) you need to provide an ini file
