This was taken from Oz's site before he gave up on the project from some very stupid people that complain that the guide wasn't complete, so IF you have problems blame them , there is a active thread on www.thetechguide.com. Have a look there as I will not respond to flames and this will disappear as well!

 

http://www.tech-hints.com/ now has a more upto-date guide, go there if your having problems :)

Oz asked me to remove his work from this page, so it's now gone

I have left the files from his site until I have conferred if I can keep them on or not!

don't ask me for the guide as I don't want to upset Oz anymore so I will not be giving it out.

Just do a search on the web for the guide if anyone has it.

I have made a basic FAQ to help people based on OZ's Info, it not a detailed and not as easy to follow but it outlines how to make a 3-1 cd


howto.txt

WinImage

ASRV Advanced Server

WPRO Pro

WSRV Server

Root

CDimage

This Bit is a possible solution to make the CD bootable, the info is edited from a post that a member called Lotus Nymphaea made

the new command line.
"F:\cdimage -lW2KPSAS_SP2 -t05/15/2001,12:00:00 -g -h -n -o -w1 -m -bd:\loader.bin D:\ROOT W2KPSAS_SP2.iso"

the command line which I mentioned above works fine. Only thing you have to replace is the path to your root folder. So if your root folder is in z:\, then the command line would be
"z:\cdimage -lW2KPSAS_SP2 -t05/15/2001,12:00:00 -g -h -n -o -w1 -m -bz:\loader.bin z:\ROOT W2KPSAS_SP2.iso"
assuming cdimage.exe also resides in z:\ and not in the z:\root folder.

OK, and now about the which diskemu file to be kept. Use the new one from the Bart's site. Its called diskem1x.bin. bootcat.bin is also not required. so the make sure you have the following files in the root folder

ASRVSECT.DAT
CDROM_IA.5
CDROM_IP.5
CDROM_IS.5
CDROM_NT.5
CDROMSP2.TST
diskem1x.bin
diskemu.cmd
loader.bin
READ1ST.TXT
README.DOC
SPNOTES.HTM
WPROSECT.DAT
WSRVSECT.DAT


the diskemu.cmd file needs to be created with the following contents. do not use tabs, use spaces instead, You will also have to remove the spaces from the end of all the lines!

:start
cls
print
print Setup Menu
print ==========
print 1. Windows 2000 Professional
print 2. Windows 2000 Server
print 3. Windows Advance Server
print Esc) Boot from hard disk...
print
print Enter a choice:

:mainkey
; timeout is 9 seconds, default key is escape
getkey 9 esc
onkey 1 goto pro
onkey 2 goto srv
onkey 3 goto advsrv
onkey esc boot 80
; When no key found...
goto mainkey
;

:pro
run WPROSECT.DAT
;

:srv
run WSRVSECT.DAT
;

:advsrv
run ASRVSECT.DAT
;


and that's all. ready to burn and boot. make sure to hide those bin and dat files in joliet filesystem and not in the iso filesystem or else you will get a boot failure.

here is a copy of diskemu.cmd for you already configured
