Spread the love

The developers behind Ultimate Boot CD are working hard with the development of version 5.0 and already released the twelfth beta release on Wednesday. Ultimate Boot CD is a large collection of open source and freeware programs intended for finding and solving mainly hardware problems. The beta is again only offered as a torrent download this time and is 256MB in size. The main change in this release is that in addition to the standard isolinux/syslinux boot menu, there is also a grub4dos boot menu, as the former didn’t always work under certain circumstances. The full changelog of this release looks like this:

Changes in UBCD V5.0b12:

  • Added a complete grub4dos menu, besides a isolinux/syslinux one: For people who get ‘Invalid Opcode’ when booting certain images with memdisk.
  • Added grub4dos (/ubcd/boot/grub4dos/grub.exe) for the grub4dos system (v0.4.4 2009-03-04)
