How to Create a Very Nice "Administrator's Toolkit" - Step 1 - Initial Setup

 

1.  Create a folder called Admin to hold your disc structure with subfolders like so: 

  

2.  Download my ISOLINUX folder here and extract its contents into yours.

3.  The ISOLINUX.CFG file under ISOLINUX controls what keys do what at the boot prompt.
     The top section pertains to the main menu that appears upon boot, BOOTMSG.TXT
            display bootmsg.txt        -  Menu that is displayed upon boot
            F1 boot.txt                    -  Menu for the DOS Boot Disks, Press F1 to go there
            F2 pchange.txt               -  Menu for the Password Changers, Press F2 to go there
            F3 rcon.txt                    -  Menu for the Recovery Consoles, Press F3 to go there
            F4 utils.txt                    -  Menu for the Hard Disk Utilities, Press F4 to go there
            F5 soft.txt                     -  Menu for the Software, Press F5 to go there
            F6 splash.cfg                -  SLAX splash screen, Press F6 to go there
            F7 splash.txt                 -  SLAX boot options, Press F7 to go there
            F8 xpre.txt                    -  Windows Recovery Environment splash screen, Press F8 to go there
            F9 bootmsg.txt               -  Original boot menu, Press F9 to return there

     The rest describes what keys load what options ie:
            label 48
                kernel memdisk
                append initrd=/images/soft/memtestp.zip

      
Means that if you type 48 at the boot prompt it will load memdisk and attempt to run the memtest floppy image located at /images/soft/memtestp.zip

3.  Download Windows CD-ROM tag files here and place them under the Admin folder (This is for the Recovery Consoles\WinRE).

4.  Goto Step 2: DOS/Windows Boot Disks
