With windows, if your "virtual" floppy is drive B:, then windows will treat it specially. It will basically copy the contents into memory from real mode using int13h, knowing that it will not be able to access the device after it switches to protected mode. I asked a few days ago about support for making a memdisk image behave as drive B:, but got no answer. :-( We have our

...on harddisks and removable disks (as the DOS kernel enumerates them) or using the NOPASSANY parameter for MEMDISK. Different output: * ISO9660 found: drive E0 with address 0800h (omitting nopassany) * Nothing found: drive 70 with address 0000h (nopassany specified) My expectation was that only floppydrives and USB/harddisk units would be hidden. (for that matter I'd prefer booting from USB FAT32 yet hide USB drive but not harddisk, but can't have it all). Original Boot order: BIOS -> CD -> Isolinux 4.04 -> Memdisk 4.04 -> FLOPPY.IMG Alternative with ISO in RAM: BIOS -> CD -...

I'd like to thank as an end-user all the people who have contributed to such a great program as ISOLINUX is. For the FreeDOS operating system (MS-DOS open source clone , freedos.org) we've been putting togehter a 55MB distribution on cdrom, and your ISOLINUX project proves it's very easy to add it to existing cdrom's to make them (multi)bootable. Thanks to both your effors

Hi All, I was testing syslinux floppy on a Mazza MotherBoard, his chipset is VIA MVP3 (VT82C598MVP, VT82C586B), and Winbond W83877F/TF. After reading the floppy, I see 'boot failed', I have to ide disk in the system, only flash device. I used the -s option to build the floppy. Does Somebody know if the chipset is supported? I tested the floppy on toshiba laptop and it works very fine.

MEMDISK included in the freshly released Syslinux v3.10 is unfortunately broken. v3.09 works properly. Scenario: Isolinux --> MEMDISK --> FDBOOT.IMG (FreeDOS 360KB diskette image). Then try to access drive B: , which normally is your first diskette drive with driveletter A:. However, in this case MEMDISK occupies A:, and real diskdrive becomes B: Bug: when accessing B:, you're asked
