I decided to install Win2K on my "retrogaming/htpc" system to take advantage of the dual processors in the thing when I'm multitasking a lot, but, it's kind of annoying having to use first one bootloader to chainload my Windows 98 partition, then, via NTLDR, selection Windows 2000 to get to Win2k. I tried using the recovery console to try to force it to write a boot sector to

Hi, I've read in some post in your mailing list there is a special version of startrom.0 which is possibile to load remote bart oe by xpe. Can you provide me it or teach me how to create my own one? Thanks in advance

Hi, Not sure if this is the right mailing list for this kind of question, but I am looking for a way to boot Linux/other OS from within Linux i.e. once I have booted into Linux may be using pxe or otherwise and then I decide to boot Windows from or Linux from localdisk, then instead of rebooting th machine can I somehow execute the boot sector/grub/ntldr etc from within Linux? Is this at all

So when you boot from only your hard drive attached, it is the primary and only drive. It loads the master boot record that load the NT Loader boot code that is then configured to load the operating system from the primary partition on the primary drive. When you boot from the USB drive, you make it the Primary drive. You then tell it to load the MBR fromt the secondary drive. The secondary

Greetings, I encounter a problem that should be basic, but I can't get a clue. I have 8G USB disk formatted as FAT32. I run (syslinux -i -s -r -m H:) to make it bootable, and write syslinux.cfg according to the documents, but it will not boot some items. Syslinux is 6.03, bios files used. The whole syslinux.cfg file:

I apologize if this is the wrong place to be asking this, but I'm pretty much out of options on where to go. I'm using the pxelinux version of tftp. Everything has worked well up to this point, however I've been trying to impliment a pxe bartpe solution in our office. Unfortunatly tftp is not passing the files correctly to the client. Here's the rundown. Server client connects to

Hello everyone, We have recently turned up a new T1 from McLeod (Midwestern CLEC). It is configured like so: /etc/zaptel.conf: loadzone=us defaultzone=us span=1,0,0,esf,b8zs ;(also tried 1,1,0,esf,b8zs) bchan=13-23 nethdlc=1-12 dchan=24 /etc/zapata.conf: switchtype=national context=pri-in signalling=pri_cpe group=1 channel => 13-23 I can get hdlc0 (and pvc0) up just fine after the

Does a comprehensive set of instructions on how to compile Libvirt on a Microsoft Vista platform exist? Has this ever been accomplished? I would very much appreciate input from persons who can give me confidence that a Windows client application can be developed on top of Libviet that connects to a QEMU system on an Ubuntu server. The Libvirt Windows Support page

When booting windows I currently have to use an extracted boot sector to chain-load the OS, is there any merit to creating a method to execute NTLDR directly using a /reverse engineered/ version of the boot sector?

Hello All, I am using NU2's BCD with the isolunix/memdisk add-on to create the cd. Floppy images work fine, however the bootsector (w2K et.al) doesn't. I get an NTLDR not found error. Not a problem, as the issue is that the bootsector needs to be in the root of the CD. Well if I do that then how do I spec that location properly in isolinux.cfg for the label tag? For example- this

Hello list, I have a question concerning the possibility of booting one of two Windows systems installed on two partitions. In case with one Windows system and one Linux system, I can chainload grub or windows loader, and this is OK. But in case with two Windows systems, when I installed second system, the installer added multi boot loader(I think it's called bootmgr), and then I can't

Having newly compiled a Libvirt on a Windows Vista machine (many thanks to Matthias Bolte) I have attempted to connect to a remote Ubuntu machine using virsh.exe. However, the connection fails as follows: $ virsh -c qemu+tcp:///system error: unable to connect to libvirtd at 'localhost': errno=10061 error: failed to connect to the hypervisor 1. I have modified
