How to use make_iso.bat in Linux via Wine?

OK
It still says this program can't run in DOS mode

I'll try XP....

Just been looking at the dosemu site, from the HOWTO:

8.2. Can I run 32bit stuff in Windows?

Sorry, no you can't. Win32s is not supported yet, Win9x is neither.

Yeah, try it on XP.

linux72, you really shouldn't give up on wine so easily. If you can find wineconsole, there's a good chance that'll work - at a minimum, it does do Win32.

linus72 · 07-30-2009, 03:23 PM

Well it's not working on XP either....

What I don't understand is why it doesn't work as simply as make_iso.sh does??

and if it doesn't work
Why is it included in every slax/goblinx/wolvix download??

I'm glad I don't have windows

Where can I get wineconsole?
it's not in synaptic?

If you have wine installed, wineconsole should work, as karamarisan said
open a terminal and type

Code:

wineconsole

For the bat file, you need to make sure the path from all the commands and files are correct.
Look at the errormessages.

Naw
It's a bunk script

I tried it several ways on XP

it simply doesn't work

Guess ole Tomas over at Slax can't write a batch file or what?

Did you looked at the error messages?

linus72 · 07-30-2009, 04:22 PM

Yeah, it just keeps saying enter path to target,iso

whatever, I tried many ways, editing the script, etc
nothing works
this is in XP

If anyone gets it to work I'd like to see it.

I thought it was neat to have a "portable" mkisofs but I guess not...?

I was lost for words when I read it. I'm surprised (pleasantly

) at you, Sasha, for thinking the same things that I was thinking.

slax\tools\WIN\mkisofs.exe @slax\tools\WIN\config -o "%1" -A "%CDLABEL%" -V "%CDLABEL%" .

I would suggest to start simple
Put the file mkisofs.exe, the config files and all the rest on a simple place
like c:\test
Then try

Code:

c:\test\mkisofs.exe @c:\test\config -o "%1" -A "%CDLABEL%" -V "%CDLABEL%

Then work from there to adjust the script to your needs
