Hello, when booting via pxelinux I can change the image to be booted based on client uuid, and MAC-Adresses. http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/PXELINUX#Configuration Now when using syslinux I would like to be able to also do this as I like to use one usb flash-drive for booting multiple machines. Is this possible or impossible by design because syslinux always uses syslinux.cfg? Regards

Hello, on a somewhat recent machine (Dell T1600) I'm unable to use my usual setup (pxelinux as a boatloader also for local OS - typically windows). The BIOS is capable of using UEFI, but this is turned off. Unfortunately all I get is a message telling me that pxelinux is unable to boot from local disk. The config entry looks like this: LABEL local MENU LABEL OS installed on local disk

Hello, are there known issues with some bioses not booting from Superfloppy format? All I get is the Syslinux (c) line and nothing else happens afterwords. Everything works fine if a partition is added to the device. Unfortunately however the target device can not be partitioned. Any hint?

Hello, I'm currently running a test setup with Samba4 internal DNS (Version 4.1.5 from Debian backports) and 2 clients (Linux and a Windows). Everything seems to work so far. However, I do not manage to get automatic PTR generation working. I'm using the internal DNS at the moment, but I wouldn't mind changing to bind if this will make it work. While reverse DNS seem to work with

Hi there, I try to boot from an USB Pen-Drive. This works fine on my Laptop, but when I try to change to the target machine it almost takes five minutes until the initrd (fairly big, 18MB) has been loaded. Any hints on how I could try to increase speed? The Bios has already been updatet to the most recent Version. Sven -- "Das ist halt der Unterschied: Unix ist ein Betriebssystem mit

Dear syslinux users, I am trying to move Kernel and initrd images away from the root directory of my bootable Partition. Looks like this is not possible. While it seems to work with pxelinux, it does not seem to work when using syslinux and FAT. I tried the following: label foo kernel /boot/vmlinuz append initrd=/boot/initrd Ideally it would be even possible to move syslinux.cfg into

Hello, up to now I have been using plain pxelinux with symbolic links (IP or MAC-Address) to the machine dependent defaults. This has been working fine with minimal differences in the configuration files: --default-lenny-- DEFAULT lenny INCLUDE pxelinux.cfg/include-options INCLUDE pxelinux.cfg/include-kernels ----------------- --default-squeeze-- DEFAULT squeeze INCLUDE

Hello, looks like Asterisk (at least the Version 1.4.21.2 from debian lenny, which I use) has a serious Problem with pseudo-realtime mode (-p switch) in conjunction with recent Kernels. Whenn using -p Asterisk simply hangs forever on startup. This is almost certainly related to the CFS SCHED_FIFO changes: http://lwn.net/Articles/296419/ Do you know how a workaround or patch how to run asterisk

Dear Samba List, I just updated my samba setup from an older Version (3.0.22) to 3.0.24 (Debian Version). Now unfortunately "valid users" does not work anymore. I have a Samba Server with security=ADS (win 2003 SP2 Domain Controller) in an all local Unix Users Setup! Thus all my usernames are available either way, by Unix "getent" and "winbind -u".

Hello, testing the localboot stuff I figured out that I'm unable to pxe-boot virtualbox with pxelinux 5.0 at all. Everything works fine in 4.05 though. This is virtualbox 4.1.18 from debian wheezy emulation a PCnet-Fast III Network Interface because the default emulated card from Intel does not support PXE in virtualbox.
