This is a locked topic with the latest beta builds for EasyBCD 2.0.
This thread will be updated whenever a new build is available for public testing. You may subscribe to this topic for notification of the availability of new builds.
You must be registered and logged in to download beta builds!
You may not host or mirror these files anywhere!
Changelogs are not always available, and there is no guarantee whatsoever that accompanies these builds. Always make a backup of your BCD data with a stable version of EasyBCD before trying anything in this thread.
You may install beta versions of EasyBCD without uninstalling the older ones - EasyBCD Setup will take care of that automatically for you.
Features several bugfixes (from older betas and previous versions).
Important changes:
* Short file names for Linux loaders are used unless a file already exists, and so the extended format is deployed instead. (e.g. nst_grub.mbr vs nst_grub-1234...555.mbr)
* Fixed update-checker to not crash if network settings are broken
* Removed some dependencies (smaller setup size)
* Some other stuff......
(If you received email notification twice - sorry, the first time it didn't go out right).

Fixes regression bug with grubless installs (where you get a blank menu.lst)
Adds experimental support for bypassing driver signing on x64. (please test!)
Important note
When testing the experimental x64 option, please create a new entry and enable bypassing driver signing for that entry - just in case something goes wrong you'll have your old entry to get back into Vista with.

Tons of new goodies, including detection of extended partitions, adavanced DOS/Win9x support (via bootsect.dos), several bug fixes, smaller setup, support for loading operating systems from an implicit boot drive, several bugfixes, and a lot of other things.
This will most likely be the final 1.61 beta build if no bugs are found! Please test it thoroughly, and report any functional or cosmetic bugs you find!
