A fully-functional WinPE (Windows Pre-Installation Env, based on
Windows XP SP2) + Linux (Slax-6-RC6) live CD ISO.  Comes w/ AdAware SE
+ McAfee AV + ClamAV + SpywareDoctor updated as of 27-Mar-08, Windows
Explorer, SmartDriverBackup, PCITREE, FoxIt PDF Reader, FileZilla FTP
Client, Ghost 8, UltraVNC, Partition Magic 8, CHNTPW (now
Vista-compatible), WIPECMOS, MEMTEST, the IBM/Seagate/WD hdrive
diagnostics, etc.  Boots to WinPE by default.

For those who've been asking, there's now a procedure to transfer
HAWKPE to a USB thumb drive and make it bootable, along w/ other
additions to the HAWKPE-CHANGES & README-HAWKPE text files !

Slax is an excellent example of a portable Linux, which comes w/
Firefox-2+Flash-9, KDE's KOffice suite, multimedia goodies, and the
latest K3B CD/DVD burning application.  So with a USB thumb drive and
your HAWKPE CD/DVD, you can carry a multimedia-enabled computer
system, with you at all times.  Enjoy....

Cheers mate..This looks to be really what I need at the moment....Will let you know:)

Thanks 'Greyhawk3'
THANKS GREYHAWK!!!!
I have been waiting months for this new release.
Hope it came with instructions on how to update the antivirus databases, spyware too. Keep up the great work.
Greyhawk: have you checked out the Geek Squad MRI software yet to compare yours with?? There are some things that might be worth including. But their software did screw up some things when I used it....such as added their crappy OS bootup option that I had to manually delete.
preludexl: Actually, I have the GeekSqaud MRI disc and for my own reasons, there will be wholesale changes for HawkPE-41.

The 1st and most important change will be the split into CD and DVD versions. The CD version will be an enhanced WinPE disc, w/ addl DOS-based, WinPE-based programs, and WinPE drivers. The goal is a better live Windows CD w/o constantly juggling what will and won't be on the CD. Even though every modern PC now ships w/ a minimum of a CD-RW/DVD combo drive, there are still many legacy PCs w/ only a CD-ROM and ltd RAM. So, HawkPE-41CD will be the baseline for these PCs.

HawkPE-41DVD will the complete system as it always been known, that is, a live WinPE *and* Linux DVD. As w/ the CD edition, there will be major enhancements, like adding Linux-specific apps on the Slax boot menu.

I'm shooting for early May for the next HawkPE. Watch this space....
thanks for this live cd. I have a question. I'm having a problem burning it requiring 360.307 sectors which is more than my burning progs permit me to write to a cd-r. Is my download possible corrupted or ???
Thank you for your time and effort , greyhawk3.

My respect !
tonybee: I apologize, but I didn't burn this release candidate before posting it. Won't ever happen again. Most CD burning programs *do* have the ability to overburn, which is what is needed to make a HawkPE-40 disc.
burned with ImgBurn and went ok without me doing anything to adjust for size, Nero can't do it due to size and or CDRs I am using
Thanks for this project this is a great thing you are doing, I hope you continue it.

I am needing a winPE with Acronis 11. Do not know how to make. Can this be added as a update? Or how about putting together a real small, one application, BartPE? Thank you.
Thanks, this has proven very useful 5 times since I d/l it two weeks ago. Used it to 'fix' a seagate drive long enough to clone it to another drive. Have not figured out how to use to clone to a file on an external USB laptop drive and then back again but thats probably just me...ghost keeps dividing it up into two or more files.
looks interesting but slax is beyond me, I booted it and seen the sneakers and some sign and cursor was active like but it didn't go any further, either my laptop is not up to it (it was loading ages) or slax is for some secret sect users LOL
Greyhawk, this one is a winner. Burned it into a USB key (actually a 2Gig SD card in a USB adaptor) and it works like a charm. You might recall you and I had vainly tried to get up an earlier version into USB. Great job! And the SD card sits nicely in my wallet wherever I go...

It's my hope to add Acronis True Image to the next release. Watch this space.

A single app version of BartPE isn't possible. I have enuf trouble keeping up w/ the existing system. Sorry....

The Slax-6 included in HawkPE-40 is a beta edition/release candidate. Not even sure if I'm staying w/ Slax-6 for much longer. It works on every laptop I've tried it on (ie. Dell, HP, and Acer), but.... Will try once more w/ Slax-6 on #41. Watch this space....

The split into multiple files by GHOST is entirely normal and explainable. There are two icons, one for a split compatible w/ CD-Rs (698MB) and the other does a 2GB split for DVD-Rs. FAT-32 drives (ie. virtually all external USB drives) as well as most data DVD formats can only handle a 2GB file at max.

Later....
Dude... I've never seen any of your torernts before, and I've never tried this... but you're already fucking awesome for posting this on here! XD

When Download is finished and I try it out, I will give feedback. ^^
Hey greyhawk, just wanted to request that in HawkPE-41 you toss in testdisk its a great command-line program for windows and/or linux that takes up little space. It was a life saver when it came time to fix my girlfriend's laptop
One thing I would love to see is an iso generator that could be used to generate an ISO image file of one disk and store it on an external USB drive.

Already done. Look a little more closely....
Great release greyhawk- i do have a suggestion tho- how about adding OPHCrack to the list of tools? when you release the dvd versions, the rainbow tables should fit nicely with all your other programs...just a thought...

Maybe. It probably won't make it into HawkPE-41, as I'm already into the third beta and OPHcrack-Live is really big.
