I purchased some software to securely erase data from a hard disk and it has a wizard that will create either a bootable cd or floppy that you can use to boot from to erase data from the hard disk. I created the CD (ISO file) and extracted the boot image from it (and renamed it to have a .DAT extension). I then copied all the files from the ISO to the root of my multiboot dvd and edited the cdshell.ini file to chain the .DAT file i extracted. When i test it out and select that option from the boot menu, nothing happens and the screen stays blank... I could upload a copy of the ISO file the program created (its only 4mb) if anyone wants to play with it to see if they can get it to work. Thanks

You could use bcdw. I tried it when I used the ISO boot cd from trueimage and it worked.
