# PE Builder changes (from v3.1.9 until v3.1.10)

Boot BartPE on a system with 64MB
Did you ever try to boot BartPE on a system with only 64MB of memory? I used
to keep a separate CD (nickname "SmallPE") for this. This CD did not have a
ramdrive and some other plugins, so that it would boot on those old 64MB
systems. Not anymore! Thanks to an updated nu2menu and a little ramdisk
parameter tuning, you can use the same BartPE CD also for 64MB system. Of
course this does not include huge and hungry plugins like xpe and so...

Supported languages
PE Builder currently supports the following languages:
english*, dutch*, czech*, german*, japanese*, russian*, slovak*, arabic,
brazilian, chinese_chs, chinese_traditional_bg5, french, greek, italian,
macedonian, polish, portuguese, romanian, spanish and turkish.
(*) Help pages are also available.

Pre-Flight check
This is a first attempt to check if all files required to boot BartPE exist in
the output location. At current a warning message is printed if a file is
missing.

See below for more details...

Changes to pebuilder.exe:
- Added an error and warning counter on build dialog.
- Added a value of 8 to SourceDisksFiles attribute. This will rename the
filename to uppercase.
- Uppercasing windows files is only done, when an ISO image is build.
- Added an option where you can disable uppercasing the windows files.
- The output directory was created in uppercase, while this is not needed. Fixed
it.
- Added a routine that, after building, checks if files required for booting
BartPE are missing from the output directory. Prints warning messages if files
are missing.
- Added a parser variable @Lcid@, which expands to the system default language
identifier (for example "409").
- Added an option to erase the ISO image and the output folder after succesfull
CD burn.
- When burning using starburn, only devices capable of writing to CD or DVD are
shown in the device listbox. Also when no device is selected PE Builder will
select the best device for you.

Changed items:
+ pebuilder.inf: Removed olethk32.dll from KnownDLLs. W2k3 SP1 will crash if the
NTVDM.EXE is stored in i386\system32 with the above RegKey. This happens for
example with the dospe plugin. In W2k3 the olethk32.dll doesn't exist in the
KnownDll List.
+ pebuilder.inf: bootfont.bin is now also copied. Mainly used in non-english
languages. It uses the new sourcedisksfiles attribute value of 8 to uppercase
the file in ISO images.
+ nu2shell.exe: v1.3, the environment variables USERPROFILE and ALLUSERSPROFILE
where not set correctly (in fact they where erased). Fixed.
+ plugin\stinger: updated to work with new stinger filenames like "stng259.exe".
+ plugin\irfanview: added "files" folder.
+ plugin\ramdisk: updated ramdisk.inf. Now the ramdisk switches to 4MB in size
when the system is low on memory. Normally systems with 90MB or less will end up
with a 4MB ramdisk. This enables you to run your normal BartPE CD on system with
only 64MB of memory.
+ plugin\nu2menu: updated nu2menu.exe to v0.3.52. Nu2menu was running out of
memory a bit fast on systems with very little memory (<64MB). Fixed memory
allocation bug.
- plugin\total commander\wincmd.ini, Small83Names=0

lang\english.lng: updated, the following language numbers: 288-293
lang\dutch.lng
lang\chinese_chs.lng
lang\czech.lng
lang\dutch.lng
lang\english.lng

lang\german.lng
lang\greek.lng
lang\italian.lng
lang\macedonian.lng
lang\polish.lng
lang\romanian.lng

- Updated the following help files:

help\dutch\pluginformat.htm
