Hi all,
I have been using XPs' hibernate function when testing out Boot disks and it seems to save quite a bit of time when rebooting as you don't have to wait for the full restart to happen (this is if you don't use qemu).
Also could the Drive fitness tester Hard drive testing program be added to the boot menu of the UBCD4win ? (along with the memory tester that is already there).

Adding floppy images to the boot menu is easy.
Copy an existing plugin that uses a .img file & change the filenames & menu to match your program.
ALL of the drive tools are included with the dos ubcd which is why we have not made more or these as individual plugins. If you choose the basic ubcd you get everything you need, but if your space is limited you can make plugins for any of the OEM HD Boot floppies that you want.
Search a little... I think there is already a small pack of these HD Diag utilities posted somewhere.

I suggest this
CODE
[SourceDisksFiles]
dft32*.iso=a,dft32.iso,1
dft32*.iso=a,dft32.iso,1
so you simple download the file into the plugin folder. Why not use the features of PE?
