Hello everyone, I am trying to identify a bug in memdisk with regards to booting memdisk images from a usb pen/flash disk. Can anyone try and download the following two images and zcat/dd them to a usb pen/flash disk: ftp://213.237.48.67/16mb-fdos-sda.gz ftp://213.237.48.67/16mb-syslinux-sda.gz Use the following command in linux to extract the images to the usb pen/flash disk under linux: zcat image.gz|dd of=/dev/sda ...would gunzip image.gz raw to the usb pen/flash disk at address /dev/sda. Then boot the usb pen/flash disk from a computer that supports booting from a hdd-type usb pen/flash disk. What I would like to know is which bioses the syslinux image fails on. Remember when syslinux boots, try to boot both the dft and freedos entries in the syslinux boot screen. If dft goes into the drive test program and freedos boots to the A: prompt, then the test succeeded. The fdos image should work no matter what - memdisk is not involved here. I would like to know the results from any bios that supports booting from usb devices. I have tested so far under recent AMI and IBM bioses - AMI seems to work without problems, but IBM bioses do not. If possible, try and test with and without an internal hard disk installed and enabled in the bios. I have discovered memdisk images works a lot of the time without a internal hard disk but fails when a internal hard disk is installed and enabled in the bios. When you report back your results - post it on this thread - thanks!
