...lly is: once all Tails users have a stick in version N that ships, say, syslinux 6.03-pre1, and the next upgrade to version N ships with 6.03-pre14's COM32R modules, will running syslinux 6.03-pre1 on the upgraded stick (that has 6.03-pre14 COM32R modules) make it unbootable?

...ll. Is it expected behaviour that filesystem shares get into a broken state after restoring a snapshot? If it's of any relevance, here's some more context: * The host is running Debian Jessie with Linux 3.16.7-ckt9-3~deb8u1, Libvirt 1.2.9, QEMU 2.1. * The guest is Tails (https://tails.boum.org) which is Debian Wheezy with Linux 3.16.7-ckt9-3. I doubt it matters since I tested this ~two years ago, and got (IIRC) the exact same results. Cheers!

Hi, [ouch, it take me a year? thank you all for this very interesting thread that I'm going to finish reading now.] Pete Batard via Syslinux: > I'll skip the EFI part of tails (that uses grub/EFI) to talk only > about the BIOS/Syslinux part.

But we now have a report about failure of 255x63 on a popular pseudo-hardware, when the ISO is presented as DVD-ROM. (Probably there is no complaint when it gets presented as hard disk.)

I just downloaded http://dl.amnesia.boum.org/tails/stable/tails-i386-2.11/tails-i386-2.11.iso which has as volume id: 'TAILS 2.11 - 20170306'. It does not bear any boot starting points for EFI. Neither for DVD nor for HDD. Knoppix 8.0 (distributed with german Linux Magazin issue 04/17) tries to handle EFI by SYSLINUX equipment....

Hi, So far I use the official binaries to boot an USB installer in UEFI and BIOS mode. I want to add a (recent) MacBooks target. I know that needs to set up on the device an HFS+ partition with a specific layout, but my question is: do you know if the official binaries: $SYSLINUX_SRC/efi64/efi/syslinux.efi $SYSLINUX_SRC/efi64/com32/elflink/ldlinux/ldlinux.e64 work in that context? Best

Hi, we're trying to solve CVE-2008-4870 = rhbz#436287 = dovecot.conf is world readable - possible password exposure. This problem seems to be little more complicated than we thought. dovecot.conf can contain passphrase for ssl key, which is available for everyone since dovecot.conf has world readable permissions. (In CVE's description is note that it RHEL's/Fedora's problem,
