startup script

Post by tas3086 »

Is it possible to automatically execute a startup/setup script for tbosdtw,tbosdtw64,tbosdt ... much like autoexec.bat for dos, or startup.tbs for TBOS?
This would allow the setup of common environmental options, and other configuration items.


Additionally, could you tell me what PEFLAG bit 13 is? I know that bit 14 indicates the active BOOTIT partition.

Thank you,

You can pass a parameter on the command line and use interactive command at
the end. When you exit it continues the script from that point. A stop
command may be useful for a future version.

The PEFlag bits are page 5 of

Great information on the PEFlag bits. Thank you

For the startup script, I would prefer a more controlled path like init.tbs . Going interactive might be too user friendly.

Thank you for a great product set and a quick response.

you can just run it via the command line .. x:\path\tbosdt
y:\path\script.tbs (you can have that include y:\path\init.tbs)
