same problem here I posted a topic too with no replies
good news is I solved it
paragon products can not be booted by a separate bif file cuz thier boot sector is modified and ofcourse you can't load ISO file directly "except acronis"
so you use the following line as your easyboot command

bcdw /ezboot/isolinux.bin /paragon/vmlinuzp initrd=/paragon/initrd.gz splash=silent quiet root=/dev/ram0 eng_ver vga=0x314

for this to run you must have isolinux in your ezboot folder
while the contents of paragon ISO in a folder "paragon"
on your bootable CD root
one more thing if you get  "could not load kernel image vmlinuzp" error
this means you paragon hard manager is older than mine and uses BZimage kernel so replace the word vmlinuzp with BZimage in your easyboot command
ofcourse you can check which file exists in your paragon folder contents and save yourself the trouble
I learned that from the UBCD forum
http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/forums....manager
it works enjoy

Thanks Darkane666!
Here's screenshoot while booting iso created with EasyBoot in VirtualPC (debug mode) - which worked fine.

But when I burn image using Nero it stop for a 5-10 seconds, then boot failed - I have added 'isolinux.bin' from syslinux-3.36, 'bcdw.bin' and 'bcdwldr.bin' to 'easyboot' folder.
'bcdw.bin' and 'bcdw.ini' to 'bcdw' folder (maybe I'm missing some files).

you should burn by easyboot itself , i always do that
and since the the dots started appearing like this
...............
then the booting started right , and your version is like mine using vmlinuzp
for the error i am afraid to tell you i am not a linux user so if you search the web with words like
isolinux disk error boot failed        "disk error 20"
you will find it for sure just hope the linux users who discussed it were using easy terms to understand
this forum may help too

finally check hardware and bios compatibilty on ISOlinux site

good luck

do as follows:
1-extract Paragon ISO file contents to a folder named "paragon" on your bootable CD root like "DISK1\"
so the folder structure so far is "disk1\paragon\"
make sure they include:
inird.gz  (A MUST)
vmlinuzp OR bzimage  one of them is your kernel

2-now in your "disk1\ezboot\"  folder maker sure you have
isolinux.bin
bcdw.bin
they should be there
3-use the following line as it is in your ezboot menu item command

bcdw /ezboot/isolinux.bin /paragon/vmlinuzp initrd=/paragon/initrd.gz splash=silent quiet root=/dev/ram0 eng_ver vga=0x314

in the previous line i used vmlinuzp as the kernel you will do so only if your version includes this file if it contains the other file "bzimage" you will use it instead and it will be

bcdw /ezboot/isolinux.bin /paragon/bzimage initrd=/paragon/initrd.gz splash=silent quiet root=/dev/ram0 eng_ver vga=0x314

one more potential kernel is vmlinuz  "without p"
it all depends on the file inside your paragon CD ISO
that's all I hope it works for you
the PDM deserves to be in our emergency disks

I am getting some errors. These are the messages I got when trying too boot Paragon Partition Manager

Uncompressing Linux.. Ok, booting the kernel
ACPI: Unable to locate RSDP (Error-1)

Ready.. You passed an undefined mode number. (Error-2)

This program cannot start due to incorrect Bios setting or lack of video memory on your computer.  Please inform our support team we can help you. If you are an experienced pc user, you can try yourself to increase, for example the <Frame Buffer Size> setting in the <Video Configuration> part of your Bios, it may help. (Error-3)

Not an experienced user so searched google and got Error-2 solved.

bcdw /ezboot/isolinux.bin /paragon/vmlinuzp initrd=/paragon/initrd.gz splash=silent quiet root=/dev/ram0 eng_ver vga=0x314

Changed vga=0x314 to vga=normal

I think vga=normal is booting into 800 x 600 resolution.

One error went away and Error-3 comes a lot of times and nothing happens after that. I didn’t find any Video Configuration setting in my bios. My pc is P-III 500, an old one.

Please give me any solution for this.

Thanks..
