Question about hdt and UEFI
...site
hdt-project is now owned by a domain-grabber (The Syslinux wiki is still
linking to it when I check 3 weeks ago... might want to remove that link).

Question about hdt and UEFI
If I remember correct HDT is a .C32 executable and not .EFI, so no it will
not work.

Syslinux on EFI won't load arbitrary .efi files but there are 3
different flavors of COM32 files, one per firmware.

Memdisk and big floppy images
...and* updating of already existing files.
May I ask which vendor is distributing a DOS FW update that is 20MB? I'd
like to see the files. Sometimes you just need the .bin/.rom and the actual
FW update EXE and it would fit a 5MB FDD image.

Memdisk and big floppy images
Dear Syslinux folks,
For a firmware update I am following the Gentoo Wiki [1] to create a floppy
image of 20 MB, so that the vendor update utility fits.
Unfortunately, FreeDOS does not load, and it seems to hang loading the
FreeDOS kernel. The original FreeDOS image boots. Do you know if that issue
is memdisk related? It?s started from GRUB with the commands below.

Memdisk and big floppy images
Haven't yet had a need for 10MB FDD images. The biggest I had to create was
5MB (5760kb). At that time I had to use WinImage to create the FDD image
and it took me a while to figure out the correct settings.
My notes state:
"I'm getting 'missing FAT' errors in WinImage, and 7-zip complains about
'unexpected end'. The fix is to increasing the FDD Heads from 2 to 4 and

syslinux-6.04-pre2
Thanks.
Any chance to update the changelog as well. The NEWS file in the archive
over at https://www.zytor.com/pub/syslinux/Testing/6.04/ only lists changes
for 6.03

Memdisk and big floppy images
The narod.ru images are super outdated (FreeDOS kernel 2028) unfortunately.
If you are interested I could provide a 5MB FDD image template based on
FreeDOS 2041 kernel (the latest available at that time in 2014) where you
would just inject your ROM and EXE (and possibly adjust autoexec.bat to
autostart/apply the FW update). It's a minimal FreeDOS FDD image that
defaults to a clean boot with
