PATCH: Let "dhcp" command iterate over interfaces like autoboot()
Hello all,
I was reading http://www.etherboot.org/wiki/appnotes/autobootchainurl,
and figured that as long as I was going to be modifying the code I
might as well try a cleaner solution. ?Attached to this message is a
patch that makes the following changes:
1) Allow the "dhcp" command to accept a list of interfaces and to try
them in order until it succeeds,...

gPXE fails automatically, succeeds with manual autoboot
...-n port 67 or port 68' on the physical host,
the VM powers on, boots up, and attempts to PXE boot. However, I
never see any traffic on the physical host's vnet0 interface, nor does
the DHCP server log any requests. If I boot the VM, then hit Ctrl-B
to drop into gPXE's prompt and type autoboot, the first invocation
fails, but the second one succeeds.
Has anyone seen this kind of behavior ? Is this indicative of a
configuration issue on the physical host? An underlying network
problem ? Or am I missing an option on my command-line ?
I'm a little stumped here, and hoping someone can...

Menu entry shifts to the right, when using "{,x}"
Hi,...
my linux distribution is "arch-linux" and I use syslinux 6.03 to boot
this system. I have the following line in syslinux.cfg:
"MENU AUTOBOOT Automatischer Start in # Sekunde{,n}"
While the boot timer counts down, on the last second the menu shifts to
the right (one less character to display). This is completely harmless,
but is very annoying, once you have seen it.
I would suggest that these line should have a left hand position,...

max of MENU ROWS?
Hi,
I've seem to hit the roof of "MENU ROWS". I've got 15 entries in the
menu, and thus I've set "MENU ROWS 15" in my cfg. But that makes the
TABMSG get partly written over the last entry. Also, the AUTOBOOT
message gets written over the bottom border of the menu.
I get these results with boot versions 3.62 and 3.70 of syslinux.
Is this a bug, or is it possible to configure the TABMSG and AUTOBOOT
message to appear lower down?
Thanks!

OT: Polycom IP501 Config file error - Error is 0x4020 (during autoboot...)
Using FTP to configure 501.
Gets past "Running... App = sip.ld"
and: Welcome! Processing configuration...
"This may take a few seconds."
Then it displays:
Config file error
Error is 0x4020
and reboots continuously, repeating the above.
Anyone seen this before?
Is this a corrupt *.ld file?
An FTP error? (PASV)?
A missing SETUP setting?
Thanks!

SYSLINUX 2.08-pre1 released
Working on fixing lower-priority bugs that I didn't want to risk
destabilizing the 2.07 release for:
Changes in 2.08:
* Add "timeoutcmd" to allow timeout to have a different action
than just pressing Enter.
* Fix bugs in the COMBOOT/COM32 command-line parsing. APPEND
now works with COMBOOT/COM32 images.

Ideas for contrib infrastructure
...ink it's necessary to make it clear that it's not part of my stuff
to keep the support load under control.
I see a couple of possibilities:
a) Inclusion with the syslinux source in a contrib/ directory, with
subdirectories for different components, e.g.
syslinux-<version>/contrib/autoboot for Murali's autoboot stuff.
+ Very easy to find.
- Tied to syslinux release cycle.
b) A separate syslinux-contrib tarball.
+ Still pretty easy to find.
+ Not necessarily tied to syslinux release cycle.
- One more thing to get.
- No easy way for the user to know ahead of time what

Does not auto boot after time out
...lty trying to figure out how to get a computer to
boot from it's local disk automatically after the pxe menu times out.
I installed syslinux-3.11-4 with yum onto CentOS 5.5
It boots to the local disk if I select Local from the menu and press
enter but it never times out and boots localy.
The AUTOBOOT message doesn't appear either.
Which instructions in the PXELINUX Wiki
(http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/PXELINUX) am I not
understanding correctly?
Here's my files and directory structure:

No, it gets not re-centered. That is my point.

That is actual a smart workaround. Thanks!
I like not to be too pedantic, but a "re-centering" of those lines
still would be nice...
Thanks

Configuring svc:/system/xvm/domains?

Compiling Menu.c32

I would like to ask you if I shall copy the menu.elf + menu.c32 to the

The menu.elf is needed or it shall be renamed as menu.c32 ?
Shall ldlinux.sys be too coming from same file?
my simple example of menu:
default menu.c32

MENU TITLE Sample Menu
MENU AUTOBOOT Starting SuperOS in # seconds
timeout 300

MENU DEFAULT
MENU LABEL SuperOS 5.3

Feature request: delay boot with no prompt display
What I'd like to do is to display an image via "DISPLAY foo.scr" where
foo.scr contains "^L^Xfoo.img", then wait a second or two, then
autoboot, all without displaying the boot: prompt.
I don't think that is possible ATM, because as soon as you set PROMPT 0
it boots immediately, regardless of TIMEOUT setting.
I can see a couple of ways to do this; one is to change ui.inc so that
TIMEOUT is still taken in to account. The other might...

statement was partially incorrect as I did find a scenario to the
contrary.
I tried with FDD then CD at the top of the list and tried with both
just disabled (without reordering first). I tried with the SATA
controller in ATA, AHCI and RAID/IRRT mode. I tried letting the
laptop autoboot to PXE with the order of the remaining items as PXE,
USB, HDD and PXE, HDD, USB. I tried manually booting PXE in these
same two orders plus USB, PXE, HDD. This is a total of 30 scenarios
that I tested.
I found that the HDD was assigned 0x80 only when in ATA or AHCI mode,
