Multi-Boot OS install disk

Hi, guys...

Hope that someone can help me ( I just got a Sony DVD-RW )
and would like to make a DVD which can do the following:-

Boot e.g. 98 - 1. Run fdisk / format
2. install : any of the following via a menu
95 / 95osr2 / 98 / 98se / ME / NT4 workstation / NT4server / 2k pro / 2k server / 2k adv.server / XP home / XP pro
3. ghost 2003
4. reboot

I'm looking for freeware / functional shareware similar to EZ OS or Easy Boot v4.1

Thanx

Bootable DVD's comply to the ElTorito specifications, so if you use a "strict" ISO9660 filesystem (all DOS filename and directory structure limitations satisfied) the job can be done. Use Bart Lagerwej's instruction's or Changyeung's, or probably the tool mention in that thread.
Most modern mainboard bios releases support multiboot CD's, but not necessarily so for multiboot DVD's.

I onced use Bart's way, but I don't like it anymore... to complicated, to many thing you don't know what it does...

I found a really better way to achieve this: CD Shell (http://www.cdshell.org/) wich is REALLY nice. Enought simple to use, it just uses scripts witch are simple, easy to learn and to use but still powerfull.

After the menu and alls are built, just found a program to build the iso.
CDImage Gui (attached) is nice, UltraISO (with the possibility to optimize cd space like "cdimage.exe -o")

good luck and if you have question, don't be afraid! :)

Does anyone know where I can get Ez Os v1.45 ( shareware version )
Been searching long and came up with nothing expect v1.3 *( too old )

CDShell - to much trouble ...

Multiboot cd/dvd with windows and linux

Is this possible? I've made already a multiboot dvd with several versions of windows and tools... but pretend to include if possible some version of linux (for now mandrake). can this be done with booscriptor and a few more menu options?

You mean a CD that contains a Windows setup and a Linux Setup? Or a Linux live CD?

For the linux live cd, yes it can be done. For the setup, I'm not sure i never tryed it but it could work. just tell boot scriptor/cdshell to chain load the boot loader of the original linux cd and your done...
