Known Bugs

Version 3.1

  • There is a bug in the menu for "DOS/Linux Boot Disks". When MSRRC (aka the FreeDOS version of Bart's Network Boot Disk) was added, the remaining function keys were not incremented. The menu works - you just have to press a function key one greater than the listed function key for anything after MSRRC. Thanks to Tim Wegner for reporting this.

  • WipeCMOS is still flagged by Norton Antivirus as containing the HackTool virus. Although I have cloaked wipecmos.com with a COM packer to produce wipecmos.exe, I forgot to remove the original wipecmos.com! Arrrghh! My apologies. Please remove wipecmos.com yourself (leaving wipecmos.exe), or wait for V3.2. Thanks to JJJ for reporting this.

  • There is a bug in startup.bat for Partition Resizer. To fix, remove the last colon in %RAMDRV%: in line 2 of the file. Thanks to David Morse for reporting this.

  • Some of the links within the documentation for "INSERT for UBCD" do not work. For example: Knoppix, Customization and Persistence, Modules and, Cheatcodes. This will be fixed in the next release.

Version 3.0

  • WipeCMOS is flagged by Norton Antivirus as containing the HackTool virus. This has been verified to be a false alarm. For the next release, we will resolve this problem by cloaking wipecmos.com with a COM packer. Thanks to Yuval Melamed for the suggestion.

  • Partition Resizer's . Yup, I screwed up on this one, plus I forgot to update the virus definition files to the latest. This will be fixed in the next release. Thanks to various people for informing me about this.

  • Disk-based docs are missing from the right-click menu of INSERT. The paths to the disk-based docs are wrong. This will be fixed in the next release. Thanks to Ben King for reporting this.

  • There are bugs in startup.bat for Partition Resizer and TestDisk. To fix, replace r: by %RAMDRV%, and x: by %BCDW_CDROM%: within startup.bat for both apps. Thanks to Jan Stocker for reporting this.

  • The activation keys for QNX modem and network versions are swapped. To fix, swap the activation keys for these two boot images in others.scn. Thanks to Darren for reporting this.

  • The image file testdisk.igz in the images subdirectory is redundant i.e. not used. To fix, remove the file from the images subdirectory.
