Boot Managers / Re: Would PLoP support VHD-files?
« Last post by volume on September 12, 2021, 17:29:59 PM »Hi Elmar,
Is it possible make small update for plpvhd on version 0.2 ?
Please add option select another FAT32 partitions v0.1 not allow this.
If computer has big HDD for example 200GB (size is not important now)
HDD is usually divided on more than single partition
Disk C (primary part.) for Windows may have 20-30GB and another volumes (Primary or Extended with FAT32) is the rest of capacity of HDD.
My problem and my scenario looks like this:
Primary C: 25GB
Primary D: 30GB
Extended the rest + SWAP for linux partiton)
Windows is installed with aplications and I have only 1GB is free now
Testing VHD files are in root of disk D: (2nd primary part)
I have there win7.vhd win81.vhd ubuntu.vhd fedora.vhd etc..
but I have to always copy VHD it to C: drive and disable hibernating and pagefile and make some free space on drive C:\
This is really small update.
Show Partition table select another supported partition.
the rest of plpvhd code may stay as it is.
only allow to user which partition (now supported only) will use for filelisting/loading.
btw: filtering (deleted FAT entries with ugly character) will be also nice feature.
it can be as toggle option when you choosing partition.
I will check plpvhd homepage soon
I am thinking about extended feature how to send parameters to plpvhd
GRUB4DOS has memory write function and writing on fixed memory address
like 0xB800 TEXT mode or 0xAxxxx graphic mode is safe
this will allow load vhd directly from GRUB menuwhen will be
passed partition and VHD file to plpvhd.bin
but this is not my primary request only feature request for fat future
