Dear fellow users,

I have the iso images of the following,
1) Bootable Redhat Enterprise Linux DVD
2) Bootable Mandriva Linux Live CD

I had both of them in the hard drive.

I need a way to create a bootable DVD which includes both the linux OSes.  

I should be able to choose one from a menu.

Please help me. (p.s. I have UltraISO and Easyboot.

Thank you.

I don't know about Redhat because I haven't tried it, but I have been playing around with Mandriva One 2007.1 and it is now working multibooting with UBCD4win (BartPE), Hiren's all-in-one 9.4, Super Grub Disk 0.9677 and miscellaneous DOS applications (ptedit, ptd3.5)

To get Mandriva One to boot, the ISO volume label must be "MDVCDROOT" as per this link

I also had to fudge the ISO as per this topic

1) Open the Mandriva image up with UltraISO and choose "save boot file" and save to disk1/ezboot/mandriva.bif
2) Configure your easyboot menu to run the command "bootinfotable;run mandriva.bif"
3) Create the iso image without adding the Mandriva files from the Mandriva ISO to the disk1 folder. Do not check the "joliet" box or BartPE won't work.
4) After the ISO is created open it up with UltraISO. change the volume label to "MDVCDROOT"
5) Choose File > Properties and tick the check box for "allow lower case"
6) Copy all of the files from the Mandriva CD into the ISO and save it, making sure that all the files save as lower case

incidentally, UBCD4win works OK for me in VMware workstation but it is verrry slooow to load off the DVD, its totally unusable. and it didn't find my Broadcom BCM43xx wireless card


hope this helps
