Try it - see if the boot from usb feature works for you.
I see you watching Greg - are you going to give it a go?
I just ignore the URL bar's history unless it gives me an autocomplete to grab.
What I like a lot is the history in the Favorites bar where I can quickly revisit sites in order I visited today, or past days, or by site, using tabs other then my Favorites.
The last bit has me confused. In the 1README file is this:
But you say to add the line to bcd? Should I edit bcd in Notepad and place the line e:\plop\plpbtldr.bin="Install PLoP Boot Manager" in there somewhere?Code:4.2) Windows VISTA run notepad as administrator create a file c:\boot.ini and add the following lines [boot loader] [operating systems] c:\plop\plpbtldr.bin="PLoP Boot Manager"
Placing that line somewhere is the last thing to do...
That didn't work for me.
That's what I meant by I had to figure it out.
Just add plpbtldr.bin to bcd like you would ntldr.
Ignore the boot.ini bit for Vista/7 - unless you want 2 entries popping up on the boot menu.
If you called the folder PLOP, it goes something like this: (you will probably be on C )
D:\Windows\system32>bcdedit /create /d "PLOP" /application bootsector
The entry {ced785a4-a6da-11de-a68e-001966657855} was successfully created.
D:\Windows\system32>bcdedit /set {ced785a4-a6da-11de-1966657855} device boot
The operation completed successfully.
D:\Windows\system32>bcdedit /set {ced785a4-a6da-11de-a68e-001966657855} path \plop\pbtldr.bin
The operation completed successfully.
D:\Windows\system32>bcdedit /displayorder {ced785a4-a6da-11de-a68e-001966657855} /addlast
The operation completed successfully.
D:\Windows\system32>
You should see PLOP on your windows boot menu.
I assume you already have 7 and XP on there and have set the default and time out of your choosing.
Select PLOP
If you pointed bcd the right way, you will get a fun sci - fi screen .
Select which device you want to boot from on the PLOP menu.
You don't have to select PLOP -select another entry from Windows boot menu if you want that, or select nothing and you will boot whichever item on the menu you set as default.
reduce the timeout of windows boot menu like this:
bcdedit /set timeout 5
HUH.
Just restart and see what pops up on the screen.
PLOP should be there .
