Is there a way for isolinux/syslinux to execute a list of comboot files immediately at startup, and only once? I have a bunch of small comboot .com files that I want to batch run immediately, then after that do a DISPLAY boot.msg similar in some ways to an autoexec.bat. For example: DEFAULT mycd APPEND ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=us .... TIMEOUT 300...

Hi Does subject exist? Is it possible to get MAC address, video card, RAM and the storage of a harddrive by using comboot? And can some one help me? /Kenneth

Working on fixing lower-priority bugs that I didn't want to risk destabilizing the 2.07 release for: Changes in 2.08: * Add "timeoutcmd" to allow timeout to have a different action than just pressing Enter. * Fix bugs in the COMBOOT/COM32 command-line parsing. APPEND now works with COMBOOT/COM32 images. ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ -hpa

I mentioned in a private email recently that it would be useful if syslinux had a malloc implementation. I have one now if anyone's interested. -- Hebe 2004-02-08 14:26:08.183 UTC (JD 2453044.101484) X = -1.159504592, Y = 2.015990327, Z = 0.638260245 X' = -0.010415779, Y' = -0.003652077, Z' = 0.001024628

Hello, Is is possible to run a comboot file before the boot message is displayed and after its execution, display the boot message and prompt? Regards, Remko van der Vossen.

Hi, I need to add an additional feature to Murali's menu system: sending and receiving UDP datagrams. I have no experiences with writing programs at such a low level. Therefore, I need some help. 1) How to transfer IP address and other options from PXElinux to comboot? 2) I got PXE specification, ver. 2.1 (sept. 1999); can I follow it safely? 3) Is there an easy interface to use PXE stack (easier than calling INTs)? with best regards p.o.

Hi *, I was just debugging why TFTP booting did not work any more on a system that had pxelinux.0 was updated. ?Since version 5.00, support for 16-bit COMBOOT modules has been dropped, and c32 modules switched from the COM32 object format to ELF.? Ugh. Well, updating the *.c32 files was enough to make the Linux discless thingy work again. BUT! The MirBSD bootloader actually took advantage of COMBOOT to provide access to SYSLINUX storage and other thing...

On the SysLinux page, there is a screenshot of "COMBOOT Menu System for SYSLINUX developed by Murali Krishnan Ganapathy" (Advanced Menu System). I was wondering where I might be able to download this menu system in full to work with?

Since lot of people want this thing, I will try to take a stab at it. For now, I will hard code the menu in the code, and then somebody else can remove that restriction. May be we can add some kind of keyword to the config file which syslinux ignores and the comboot menu does something with it. I have one question about comboot: If I write a DOS program using C (compiled using watcom -3 -mt -osx flags) and use only BIOS interrupts and the DOS interrupts which comboot API supports, it should work in syslinux right? In that case, it will be easy to debug, si...

First of all Great software, Do you know how I can get the syslinux to display a help screen and then return to the menu, or where I can find information on making .cbt files.. Thanks.
