CODE

boot:
show image graphics\menu.csi
getkey 20 boot 0x80
if $lastKey == key[1]; then goto me
if $lastKey == key[2]; then chain /2000/2000.DAT
if $lastKey == key[3]; then chain /WSP2/WSP2.DAT
if $lastKey == key[4]; then chain /WSP3/WSP3.DAT
if $lastKey == key[5]; then chain /3STD/3STD.DAT

if $lastKey == key[6]; then diskemu /KNOPPIX/boot.iso
if $lastKey == key[7]; then diskemu /BT3/load.iso
if $lastKey == key[8]; then isolinux /live/vmlinuz1 initrd=/live/initrd1.img boot=live union=aufs noswap vga=791 ip=frommedia nolocales

if $lastKey == key[a]; then chain /XPPE/XPPE.DAT
if $lastKey == key[b]; then diskemu /SETUP/UBCD/UBCD.iso
if $lastKey == key[c]; then memdisk /HBCD/boot.img
if $lastKey == key[d]; then diskemu /SETUP/PASS/PASS.ISO

if $lastKey == key[x]; then goto serial
if $lastKey == key[p]; then end
if $lastKey == key[r]; then reboot
if $lastKey == key[esc]; then boot 0x80

if $lastKey == key[F1]; then goto Help

serial:
show image graphics\serial.csi
getkey
goto boot

me:
show image graphics\me.csi
getkey 20 goto boot
if $lastKey == key[1]; then memdisk /SETUP/ME/COMMAND.IMA
if $lastKey == key[2]; then memdisk /SETUP/ME/SETUP.IMA
goto boot
end

the input "p" is to "quit to command prompt". but when i press "p", nothing happens... the "menu.csi" image stays at it is. the command prompt screen doesn't come up. i researched around a bit and it turns out t does actually switch to command prompt in the background when i press"p". but the image file "menu.csi" blocks it from showing. it's only when i input rubbish in front of the image screen does it switch to the command prompt.

check screenshot.

Same problem for me; when i select "boot to command prompt" it take me to "/boot>" but when i type any command nothing happening. You find a solution for this?

do you want it to go to a DOS prompt, or use the CDShell command?

If you want it to go to DOS, then you need it to point to a dos bootable image. If you want CDShell prompt, then try this:

QUOTE

if $lastKey == key[p]; then show console

try simply adding the cls or clear command before the prompt is loaded

so

if $lastKey == key[p]
then cls
then end
