Changes in version 5.2.4:

• Modified pmagic1.txt as per Explorer09’s suggestion.
• Update DiskCheck to V4.3.0.
• Updated HDClone to V4.3.2.
• Fixed a regression in “\ubcd\tools\linux\syslinux2grub4dos\syslinux2grub4dos.sed” that causes converted grub4dos scripts to be missing the “ubcdcmd” parameter.
• FDUBCD: Updated deltree.com in (FDUBCD/level1/freedos.cab/bin) to V1.02g. Updated jemm386.exe (FDUBCD/bin) to V5.78. UBCD FreeDOS version updated to V1.49.
• Updated ASTRA to V6.04.
• Updated HD Shredder to V4.0.0.
• Updated grub4dos to 0.4.5c-2013-05-21 and adopted Explorer09’s suggestion to change the border color of the grub4dos menu to match syslinux’s by updating “\ubcd\tools\linux\syslinux2grub4dos\syslinux2grub4dos.sed”.
• Updated Parted Magic to 2013_05_01_i586. This version fixes the issue of Firefox maxing out CPU, but has a regression in running from RAM. As such, I have commented out that option for this release so that only the “live” boot option is available.
• Updated CPU Stress to V2.3.3.
