[boot scriptor] Re: cdshell isolinux freeze/reboot?

I vaguely recall seeing something like this once upon a time, and as I recall, 
it came down to something weird like the sector count for loader.bin wasn't set 
correctly when I made the CD image - either that, or I had forgotten to set the 
disk emulation to "none" when burning the disc.

Subject: [boot scriptor] cdshell isolinux freeze/reboot?

I have copied the cdshell files from The Ultimate Boot CD to a boot cd
of my own which starts isolinux automatically.  I have isolinux run
diskemu, and it runs loader.bin from The Ultimate Boot CD.  At this
point I am presented with the normal cdshell menu.  The problem is when
I try any of the menu options that use the isolinux command.  On my
laptop it just freezes after displaying:

ISOLINUX 3.07 03/01/2005
 Copyright (C) 1994-2005 H. Peter Anvin
isolinux:

when using vmware it pops up a nice box displaying:

*** Virtual machine kernel stack fault (hardware reset) ***
The virtual machine just suffered a stack fault in kernel mode. On a
real computer, this would amount to a reset of the processor. It can be
caused by an incorrect configuration of the virtual machine, a bug in
the operating system, or a problem in the VMware Workstation software.
Press OK to reboot virtual machine or Cancel to shut it down.


When I boot to The Ultimate Boot CD image that I downloaded, everything
works fine, but something has failed in my configuration and I am
missing the problem.  Has anyone seen this before or have any insight
into the problem?

Thanks,
Jason
