bootable windows 8.1 oscdimg problem fix usb3 bigreds

Post by darknkreepy3# »

I kept getting issues with the oscdimg failing with ReadFile errors on on external usb3 drive.

Code: Select all

A:\00_soft\_win81\x86x64\Create.iso>A:\00_soft\_win81\x86x64\Create.iso\Recreate
.x86-x64.iso.cmd

A:\00_soft\_win81\x86x64\Create.iso>oscdimg.exe -m -o -u2 -udfver102 -lWin8.1.AI
O.x86.x64.MBR-UEFI -bootdata:2#p0,e,bDVD9\boot\etfsboot.com#pEF,e,bDVD9\efi\micr
osoft\boot\efisys_noprompt.bin DVD9 Win8.1.AIO.x86.x64.MBR-UEFI.iso

Error 87: The parameter is incorrect.
I thought it was the directory length. no.
I thought the data was corrupt. no.
I checked the errors and 4gb was a problem to fat32. no.
I checked the usb3 driver, and another as a test, both NTFS.
Turns out, running oscdimg with an image of 7.5+gb being made, it fails, too large.
I tried moving the build folder to an internal ntfs sata connected drive, no failure.

oscdimg cannot make usb3 images through windows 8.1 to create a gigantic iso from some bug?
internal sata file system handles it differently in the os or oscdimg?

So, move the DVD9 folder and x64 x86 as well, the entire thing, into an internal sata drive.
open a standard command prompt and x86 x64 or the whole x86x64dvd9 one, and it will build.

very very strange. something I am missing, but at least the new iso is built now.

Done.
