IMHO, the reports are much more useful here in the Syslinux Mailing
List, for several reasons including the possibility to search their
contents easier than in the Syslinux Bugzilla (which is unmaintained).
FWIW, I am currently failing to build Syslinux, at least partially.
Downloading snapshots at some of the recent commits, some of them fail
to build, and some of them build only part of the binaries, not all of
them.
Additionally, I also tried with specific targets, such as 'make
installer', also with errors.
As reported previously this month in another email thread, the
DOS-based installer in 6.04-pre1 fails. I successfully built
"syslinux.com" from a snapshot of current git master head, and it
seems
to execute correctly. Unfortunately, once booting the desired media it
fails with:
Failed to load ldlinux.c32
Considering that I am not a developer, the details of the environment
in which I tried to build Syslinux this time are not very relevant, but
they are certainly very different than the environment used by Poma;
mainly, much older versions except for the Syslinux snapshot. The
failures to build might not be related to the particular environment,
considering that other users have also reported similar failures to
build the current Syslinux git master head while using other
environments (such as Debian 8.3), or they were unable to successfully
boot with the resulting binaries.
The reason I am posting in this email thread is because the "Failed to
load ldlinux.c32" I mentioned above seems to be "equivalent" to
what
Poma is reporting, although the scenario is very different. In
addition, I am hoping for other users to try to replicate and report
feedback (whether with failures or success).
I am aware that most developers would normally test with some
network-booting scenario; I hope the "syslinux.com" DOS-based
installer
gets to be tested too, perhaps even showing what is wrong with the
current code.
As a note aside, although I was able to build "syslinux.com" in _some_
cases, I am failing to build the "syslinux*.exe" installers. Perhaps
the reason was my building environment (in which case, I wouldn't care
much) but perhaps it is something in the current code / make files.
Regards,
Ady.
