I originally put this in the FAQ section and I think maybe that was the wrong place. Maybe the moderators can delete it or move this message as they see fit.
First I would like to thank you for a wonderful product! If you only knew or could even imagine how many times your work has blessed me in my day to day task, you would probably not believe it! I do not beleive there is one or two days that go by at most that ubcd4win does not assist me!
I rarely post but do read the forum and am amazed at the amount of work you are putting into this. Even though I mostly use this in my day to day work, I will be donating personally to help you as best as I can.
I am in an enterprise IT environment and we use a number of tools to do our task. I am mostly in the desktop engineering aspect working with Business Desktop Deployment and other technologies.
I wear many hats (WAY TOO MANY!) and do all the ghosting, image building/updating, troubleshoot complex problems, etc., but I rarely spend much time in comprising boot cds or the like and I have to re-learn because of the time between working with the boot environment is too long (I usually download what I need and use it "from the box" you might say or work with stuff I have pre-built).
However, we are often plagued with needing the ability to run some of our enterprise toosl/applications from a boot cd. One such tool would be our corporate AV solution, others would be malware removal tools, disk tools, file agents, recover agents, etc. (Currently for AV we are using Symantec AV 9 soon updating to 10). Often we have to ship computers back to our corporate headquarters for repair because they get so corrupted and this is a great cost to our company.
We have multiple boot cds and would like to incorporate into one cd or even better a DVD (an or possibly a USB stick) solution with a "menu" that we could select which environment we would like to use. More importantly is there anyone using commercial apps such as Symantec AV from a "boot" cd as ubcd4win, or could you point me into the right place to get assistance with this type of issue.
We are also licensed for "winpe" in our windows environment and I was wondering of any legality issues that could occur with using that along with ubcd4win? Not long ago I met with Microsoft BDD engineers and we do know they are loosening up some with the winpe environment. We are now able to put many tools in that environment and I believe we will see that loosen up further in the days ahead.
Still I believe the ubcd4win is a better "tools" environment. At any rate, I do thank you and appreciate ANY feedback you can give me.
