Mounting IMAGE with Relative File Path

[Glassmontag]

A way to mount IMAGES relative to the Daemon Script or Batch File. The idea is to have an image file on a CD, and a batch file to mount the image automatically... the downside is you would have to know what drive letter the actual cd is in.

so.... instead of d:\image.mds
this.... image.mds

first thing: check the helpfile in the D-Tools install directory, there is a folder named help with a file, you need to look for Command Line Switches

the thing with the drive letter is quiet easy
make a bat or cmd file and copy this into it to store the driveletter in the variable %CDDRIVE%

tagfile=\folder (or \folder\file, must be a file on the CD because this looks for this file)
for %%i in (c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z) do if exist "%%i:%tagfile%" set CDDRIVE=%%i:
(this is supposed to be in one line)

then you can use the cd like this: %CDDRIVE%\FOLDER\FILE

Thank you! I'd completely forgotten about this post. I came up with a solution a while back:

SET filepath="%cd%\CoD1.mds"
"C:\Program Files\D-Tools\daemon.exe" -unmount 0 -mount 0,%filepath%

Also, daemon.exe should be listed in the autoexec, it would make this much easier still.
